Good luck. Japanese trains are wonderful.
This is probably the best video about commuting from NRT to Tokyo (Nippori). Thanks so much.
Thank you so much!🙏
Best video so far about Jr and trains
Thank you so much!🙏

5:16 most important bit, thanks.
skyliner, requires 2 ticket = passenger ticket (can use IC card) + liner ticket
yes, you're right! thanks!
If you don't have IC Card, then you have to buy one passenger ticket, right?
Thank you for this informative video! I noticed that the video has a lot of Kenty Skyliner XD I am an big fan of Kenty, and I hope I can ride the Kenty Skyliner when I go to Tokyo soon

The video was very informative and well-produced. I especially liked the fact that the host showed the difference between the different train options. I think this would be very helpful for first-time visitors to Tokyo. What is your favorite thing to do in Tokyo?

現在COVID-19流行中のため、座席を回転させて向かい合わせての利用は、車掌に注意されるかもしれませんのでご注意下さい
ところでスカイライナーは、新幹線を除く全ての日本の列車の中で最速(160km/h)です。最速で走るのは一部の区間のみですが、車窓の流れる速さは新幹線のそれに匹敵しますので、車窓も楽しんで下さい
ちなみに私は、成田空港から上野行きのスカイライナーに乗ったとき、右側に見えるに印旛沼という大きな沼を見るのが好きです

Great walkthrough, I'm going to Ikebukuro from Narita tomorrow with the Skyliner and JR, and I haven't been back to Tokyo in 10 years!
Thank you so much!🙏 Have a great trip!
Thank you for the informative video 🙏 And have a wonderful day 🌹
Thank you! Same to you!^^
The Skyliner has been more convenient for me than the Skyliner since my preferred place to stay in Tokyo is in Asakusa. It was no big deal for me to go from Tawaramachi a couple stops over to Ueno and to the train.
Hi! I'm staying near to Tawaramachi, wuuld you recommend to take this route?
You are special. Muchas gracias por este video.
Thank you!

thank you so much!^^
Great info, downloading right now 😂
Thank you so much!🙏
Thông tin rất hữu ích và chi tiết luôn. Cảm ơn chị ạ!
Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều!^^
I was actually confused by this the last time when I got to Nippori. I didn't realize when I got off, it was where I should have bought my ticket for the JR line. I just put in the Skyliner ticket I bought at Narita into the gate and it let me in, but there was no place for me to buy a ticket at that point. I ended taking the train to Shinjuku and explaining to the attendant at the gate that I didn't have a ticket from Nippori and they just charged me that fare amount to let me out of the station.
Very good video!
Thank you so much!🙏
Thanks!
Thank you!
thank you! i learned so much!
thank you so much^^
The best video which describes what I want to know! 🎉Only other question I have is if there's a limit on number of luggages you can bring in and size of luggage allowed ☺️
Thank you so much!🙏 technically you can bring up to 2 large suitcases.
Thank you so much for another informative video. Is it possible for you to do one from Haneda airport please?
Thank you very much!
Thanks!^^
Thx 🙏 for your share ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for watching!🙏
thank you for this video! is there space for luggage?
Thank you so much!🙏 yes there is a space for luggage.
wow，thank you，
thanks!
Thank you for creating this great video.. It’s very simple and easy to understand about the Skyliner especially for the first timer traveller to Japan like me.. One question I’d like to make sure is what sleepabout the maximum size of suitcase that can be brought inside the Skyliner? My suitcase is large size, 32inch, is it possible to bring it on the train?
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 yes you can bring it on the train. there's a space to store it. if you're early, you can leave your suitcase there. if not, you can just keep it at your seat.
Thank you for detailed video
thank you!
Thank you.
Thank you so much!🙏
Thank you for the very clear, concise and informative video. I want to ask if I want to take the Shinkansen train to Nagano, which stop should I take to switch to JR Line?
thanks! you can go to Tokyo station and switch to the shinkansen to Nagano there.
Super video. Thank you very much. One question: on vending machine - reservation of the seats are provided together with buying the tickets or after that? 😊 Jan
Hi! Thank you so much for watching!🙏 you can reserve and buy the tickets at the vending machines together.
Hi! Thank you so much for this! Really helpful! Just want to ask if I can use a digital IC card when traveling via Skyliner? Thanks
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 you can use an IC card to pay for the passenger ticket of the Skyliner, but you still need to buy the Liner ticket in order to get on the Skyliner. (because the Skyliner requires passenger ticket + liner ticket) I think the video at 5:11 can help explain better.
thank you 😊 and my daughter who is 1 year old I assume is free? So I only need to but 2 adult tickets for me and my husband? Thank you so much!
@@kimr3028 you're welcome! yes, your daughter doesn't need a ticket.
Thank you for good video and info.
I have only one question, what if I bring big luggage, is there any space in the train for it? Thanks
hi, it's an airport train so it has space. it just doesn't have a dedicated space for large luggages. people just keep their luggages with them while they stand or sit on the train. you can have up to 2 big luggages (i think around 250cm or so).
@@ONEGOODDREAM thanks for reply. Another useful info 👍
Merci beaucoup 😊
De rien! Glad you liked it!^^
Super video. Thank you very much. One question: reservation of the seats are provided together with buying the tickets or after that? 😊
Great job! How does this work if you ordered online and have your Suica on your iPhone? Leaving from the airport to your hotel no stress however going to the airport where you need to catch your airplane is a different circus, amirite?
This video is really helpful to me. I'm going to stay in Ikebukuro. Going to Tokyo in October this year.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much!
Very informative video but my poor brain is having info overload. Im goin to japan staying in nippori in 2 wks
thank you so much for watching! 🙏 this is the train to take to Nippori. don't worry! it's easier than it looks :) have a great trip!
Thank you very much for explaining the process of buying a ticket. Having the two sections (ticket plus liner ticket) is needlessly complicated, but probably a bit easier to do without using my IC card.
(I have a hand injury so trying to use an IC card and insert a second ticket will be too awkward. Looks like I'll be spending another 13 yen! :) )
right! take care and have a great trip! thank you so much for watching!^^
It’s not complicated. You get just one ticket. Do you have a problem?
Hi! Appreciate the well informed video 😁 how about luggages? Can we store them while boarding the train? Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 you can bring up to 2 large suitcases beside your personal items like backpacks. the space for storing large suitcases is quite limited. so you may want to come to the platform early as it's first come first serve for that storage. but the leg space is quite generous enough to keep a large suitcase at your seat (if you have to)
Great video thanks for sharing this value information. Quick query, is the maximum amount of tickets 3 or can I buy more?
Thank you so much!🙏 yes you can buy more, that is just the quick menu.
Thank you for your informative video. What's the best seat for a person using a wheelchair?
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 I'm not sure about that. there's usually a reserved space for wheelchair seats. when you buy the tickets, just tell them your request about wheelchair and they will help you out. there'll be a station staff taking you all the way to the train and to your seat.hope this helps.
this is a wonderful video thanks :)
1 question: what about luggage in the skyliner?
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 you can bring up to 2 large suitcases beside your personal items like backpacks.
11:48 anybody knows why does she have to insert the Liner ticket prior to the IC card to transfer to the Yamanote line, rather than just using the IC card alone ? Otherwise great video, very useful :)
Narita Airport seems to be the most english friendly than Haneda
Thanks for making great vdo, and that really helpful and you just made my trip easily, by the way i am traveling to Japan next month, so what is the best convenient way to do money exchange from US $ to JPY. should i do it right at the airport? or anywhere that give me a better rate? thank you in advance :)
Thanks! This is great! very informative
thank you so much!^^
Correct me if I am wrong, there are different platforms in the skyline, is that right? How would I know what plaform should I get in? Thanks 😊
the Skyliner is at platform number 1. but there are 2 trains using the same platform. so you need to see the train design, and the departure time on your ticket to make sure you get on the right train.
Great Video! Very informative and nicely explained for a first time visitor like me. When I have both passenger ticket and Liner ticket, which one needs to be put first in the slot of the platform gate? when I use the machine to buy 3 adults tickets in a single transaction, can I select seats for each passenger? Which side of the train would you recommend for better view?
thank you so much! 🙏 if you buy both passenger and liner ticket, they gonna be combined into 1 ticket, so no worries, just insert that ticket at the gate. the left side of the train is the same side with Tokyo Skytree, but the Skyliner machines don't let you choose seat from a seat map. you can only choose window/aisle seats.
why did they make the ticket so confusing? I dont see the point in having two separate tickets for one ride
it is confusing! I also wish they could simplify the process!
Hello, this may be a stupid question, but in the case we get the tickets without IC card, do we insert the two tickets (passenger ticket+liner ticket) at the same time, or one after the other, or one pick up then next and pick up? 😅
hi, if you buy a ticket without using ic card at all, the 2 tickets (passenger + liner) will be combined into one. so you'll have only 1 ticket in your hand^^
@@ONEGOODDREAM Oh I see, thank you very much for your reply! This will be very helpful^^
Best video so far. I love your beautiful voice, so nice and comforting :) . We will be arrive there on Dec 23 and have to go to Nappori station to catch a train to our hotel in Kawaguchi .
Do the machine take virtual Suica card from iphone?. I did not see a card reader there on the machine, maybe have to use a physical IC card.
Thanks
Thank you so much!🙏 you're right, seems like the old machines do not take virtual suica card. in that case, it's best to just buy a paper ticket from Narita all the way to Kawaguchi at the ticket counter. other cases you can use the virtual card pretty much any where. you can even charge the virtual suica card at ticket vending machines like a physical card. due to the chip shortage, they've stopped selling the physical ic card. even stopped selling the Welcome Suica card at Narita Airport from Dec 18 2023.
@@ONEGOODDREAM We need to get a physical IC card somewhere for a family member who does not have an iphone to install virtual IC card. What are other options do we have if there is no IC card available?
@@jamescc2010 you can buy a Pasmo Passport card (paid by cash only) at a ticket counter at Keisei station at Narita Airport (right across the hall of the JR station). or you can buy a Welcome Suica card later at major JR stations like Shinjuku station, Shibuya, Tokyo Station. else, you have to buy a paper ticket every time.
btw, when you say Kawaguchi, you mean Lake Kawaguchi (i.e. Kawaguchiko) or Kawaguchi city in Saitama?? the direction is quite different...
@@ONEGOODDREAM Kawaguchi city in Tokyo, not Mt. Fuji. Thanks
Thank you for your video. Do we still need buy train ticket at counter / machine if we already have suica ?
Yes, for this particular train you do. You buy a specific 'Liner' ticket (1300yen) and put that in the ticket gate machine, and scan your Suica at the same time (and it will be charged 1257yen). The Suica is for the general passenger charge and the 'Liner' ticket is a separate charge.
@@ChuckieMcHaggis and when i arrive at Ueno station i have to exit through the ticket gate machine again, do i put the liner ticket and suica again when i leave the railway platform? does the liner ticket than stay in the ticket machine and i can switch to JR lines with my IC Card? Or how does the exiting work from skyliner?
Do you have to change trains for Ueno? You didn’t mention this station
no you don't have to, this train goes directly to Ueno, no transfer.
Thank you for the very informative videos! I was wondering if we could use our mobile suica/pasmo to charge at Narita Terminal?
Thank you so much!🙏 Yes you can charge your mobile Suica at ticket machines at NARITA Airport (check the JR station)
Helpful video! What is the difference between a Liner ticket and a Passenger ticket?
Thank you so much for watching!🙏 a passenger ticket/basic ticket is to get on a train. a liner/express/bullet train ticket is to get a reserved seat on an express/bullet train. an IC card can only pay for a passenger ticket at the entrance/exit gate.
@@ONEGOODDREAM Thank you! That's clearer now. I also saw one video where he only used 1 liner ticket to get in the train by inserting it at the gate. He got it from a voucher he bought online though, not sure how that is different.
@@adrianjason13 you can buy the total ticket (liner + passenger ticket combined) in one piece of ticket too.
Hi. Is it really nescessary to buy a liner ticket and tap the ic card at the same time at the gate before entering? I thought liner ticket alone is fine already. 😅😅😅
there are 2 options. you can choose either one depending on whether you have an ic card or not. if you don't have an ic card, you can buy a total ticket and use that ticket only.
very informative video , thank you, whilst i am travelling around japan visiting places is it just tokyo i need to aviod rush hour on public transport, how about kanazawa or osaka? its a bit of a pain watiing till 10 am to be able to start a day trip
Thank you so much!🙏 Tokyo and Osaka, super crowded. but it should be fine after 8:30am.
This is so informative. Thank you! We need to get to Asakusa Station from NRT. We are going in September and will have a JR pass; however, you’re saying it’s much quicker with the Skyliner. What would you recommend using? Also, how do we get to Asakusa? I so appreciate you help thank you!!
Thank you so much!🙏you can take the Access Express (7:48) to go directly to Asakusa station from Narita Airport for about 1 hour, no switch. but you can't use the jr pass for this train. Asakusa is not the best place to take full advantage of the jr pass since it's not a JR area.
Hi. If I don't have IC card I pay 2570 yen. After paying how many tickets will I get? Because you didn't show us how many tickets came out from the machine. Thanks.
Hi, in that case, you will have 1 ticket only and you just need to insert that 1 ticket at the entrance gate (no need the IC card). remember to get back the ticket at the entrance gate and when you get off at your destination you will need to insert the ticket at the exit gate.
Can I choose the seat on the skyline train by ticket vending machine ???????
I couldn't choose the seat by ABCD, just by Window or Aisle.
I just found out you could choose a seat in the JAPANESE website
Although I'm not sure if Foreigners can use it
Thank you very much for useful video. I will go to Tokyo in July. I know how to get to Tokyo city from Narita now.
