TRANSIT FLY Review: We at TransitFly.com regard Tokyo Narita International
Airport as having some of the finest airport transportation systems in the entire
World. With two separate train stations at Narita Airport served by four separate
train lines including the Narita Express (N'EX), Keisei Skyliner Express Train,
Keisei Limited Line, and Narita Rapid Train by JR East Railways, Narita in our
opinion definitely qualifies as "WORLD CLASS". For passengers placing the
more importance on transit time than cost Narita Express trains provides direct
service from Narita Airport to Tokyo Station in only 57 minutes. The Keisei
Skyliner and Limited Express trains also allow passengers to access the the JR
Circle Line (for surrounding communities) and the Tokyo subway system at Ueno
Station in around only 50 minutes for under ¥2,000.
