Hi Guys,
Need some help on travelling to Japan. I am travelling to Haneda on AA this 28th and the flight was delayed as per AA notice recently. It is scheduled to only arrive at Haneda at 2230. As I understand the trains would be closed and not sure if I can make it out of the customs in time for the Airport limo bus which is the last one at 2310.
Would like to ask if there are any other ways out of Haneda to Tokyo apart from the taxi as I know it is very expensive for Taxi service in Japan. I will be staying at Shinjuku Washington which is on the Airport limo bus route but with AA screwing up my schedule I am now not too sure of how to get there.
Some help from experienced travellers would be appreciated.....

FAX: 04-2630788 Not sure about the charges tho. Maybe just a small dime Easiest way is to mingle around with other travelers and find someone who wants to chip in Thanks for the reply but dun think its possible as I am travelling in a group of 4. Checked from some of my other friends who have been to Japan and they were saying that the cab cost is about 2-3 times what I would spend for the bus....

QUOTE(nasizwan @ Jun 10 2011, 03:02 PM) I reckon your friend said from taxi cost from Narita not from Haneda. If you're traveling alone yes its gonna cost 4 times more but four of you all together its going to be the same as limo bus ride. The price is within JPY8000~9000 (depends on which taxi company) and the price is fixed. Limo bust would cost you JPY2000 per person. You can refer here and herehi Nasizwan based on the chart the taxi fare to Shinjuku would be about JPY 6,000- 8,000 whereas the airport bus limo is at JPY 1200 per adult and JPY 600 for child..Anyway am trying to make a comparison on all options now. Thanks for the assist and link. Very much helpful.

QUOTE(Shazzac @ Jun 23 2011, 11:02 AM) This is what I gather from CNN. Thanks for the heads up. I think Tokyo is not highly affected. Ok thanks. A bit concerned now as I remember there was a the NZ quake then a small quake in Japan before the March big quake. History seems to be repeating itself now with the latest NZ quake and now this one. Are we to expect a bigger quake in Japan next ??? Scary. This post has been edited by Jetpeh: Jun 23 2011, 11:21 AM
