transportaion from Narita airport
 
We are planing:confused: :confused: to land in Narita airport at 20:50 at the end of March.
Our hotel location is near shinjuku station, as much as we understood the Narita express is working till 22:00, what other options do we have?

You can take the bus. It will take you straight to the Shinjuku Station.

Skyliner from narita to Shinjuku station 3,000 Yen.

The Skyliner will not take you to Shinjuku. You'll have to transfer trains at Ueno, which is a drag for a foreign tourist with a big suitcase.

is it possible that the last bus is leaving narita air-port at 22:35'
it means that if we have small delay we can't leave to tokyo

I can't imagine it would take more than an hour from landing to get to the train station in Narita. Unless you are carry lots of commercial goods or suspicious materials I generally get through customs and have my bags in hand in 15 minutes.

Agree with taking the bus !

Carefree. 3000 yen and dropped me off right in front of my hotel Sunroute Shinjuku.

Thank you for your answer, we have only our personal belongings, but since we are foreiners it might take more time, and above all we are arriving from seoul with connection , in case of delay, what kind of transportation can we use at late hour? :confused:

I am American, and it has never taken me very long to get through customs...Japanese airports get you out of there as quickly as possible.

But if it does take longer, the bus is the best option.

i take the skyliner directly into Shinjuku all the time to get my apartment key.

in fact i've done it like 4 times...

unless they changed that in the last year. which i dont think they did.

No. What are YOU talking about?

The Skyliner is run by a company named Keisei, which doesn't even have a railroad leading to Shinjuku.

its a BUS that takes you to shinjuku, not a train.

he asked for other options, i recommended the skyliner, a bus that takes you directly into shinjuku, with space for luggage and its 3,000 Yen.

blimp 03-25-2009 06:24 AM

you'll see a booth for skyliner tickets on the first floor or narita, across from one of the currency exchange places.

Skyliner is a train which won't go to Shinjuku directly.
