A one-way fare between Narita Airport and Tokyo Station is JPY ¥1,500 (JPY ¥3,000 for late-night and early-morning services). Tickets with a designated departure time can be purchased at the ticket counters inside each terminal building at Narita Airport. All seats are unreserved.

From Haneda Airport (HND):

• The Tokyo Monorail runs every few minutes and takes about 20 minutes to reach Hamamatsuchō Station, where you can transfer to JR Yamanote Line.( JPY ¥690)

• Keikyu Railways operates direct services from Haneda to Shinbashi.( JPY ¥550)
  *Most stations are equipped with ticket gates that accept VISA contactless (tap-to-pay) payments.
