dear all, would like some advice on the train from Haneda to Takaracho station.

my flight will be arriving at 10:30pm. assuming i manage to get out by 11:15pm, i should be able to catch one of the below three trains:


train departure 11:42pm
---------------------------------
haneda -> keikyu kamata (2 mins to transfer) -> sengakuji -> takaracho


train departure 11:31pm
---------------------------------
haneda -> shanagawa or aomono-yokocho (9 mins or 12 mins to transfer) -> sengakuji -> takaracho



i have 6 people in my group (:S)

- my worry is the train transfer, do we have to walk very far or something? i couldn't find any info on how to do the transfer.

- if we miss the train transfer, would we end up getting stranded in the station (since its the last train)?

- is there any possibility at all that we would be able to catch the trains in time? tongue.gif

thanks!

2014 or 2016.  Not finalize yet.
You need to know Haneda Airport very very well only enough time to catch the Train.  Aim for Limousine Bus much safer.

oh.. it looked straightforward in their video. it shows turn right to the train station from the departure hall. looks near from the video tongue.gif

how about train transfer? do we have to move to different floors/walk around to switch?

thanks.

Airport line normally will direct reach shinagawa Station if you take Keiyu Line.

Haneda Airport famous for it wind shear problem. Runway will closed , delay will be 20 minute or more.

Plus 10.30pm normally will have 1 flight from Singapore and Hawaii.  Custom will be jam pack of people.
Still, I suggetion you make a backup plan.  limoisine bus.

the limousine bus din reach chuo, shintomi district T-T think will take 2 taxis or book a van as backup plan

anyone use tokyo-taxi or tokyoairporter service before?

With only 3 days are you sure you want to spend one full day (1/3 of the entire trip) at a theme park?

Scroll up few posts, I don't see the point in going tsukiji if you are not going to either queue for the two famous sushi places or queue for the tuna auction (or both).
