Haneda Airport is much closer to central Tokyo than Narita Airport: the airport estimates about 15 minutes to Shinagawa Station by train. There are four main ways in: the Keikyu Line to Shinagawa Station and on toward Asakusa Station, the Tokyo Monorail to Hamamatsucho Station, Airport Limousine buses that stop at major stations and hotels, and fixed-fare taxis. This guide compares their times and fares from each company's official pages, so you can pick the one that drops you closest to your hotel.

After a long flight, the hardest part is often the first ticket machine. Knowing which line to look for before you land makes the first hour in Tokyo much easier.

Going to Shinagawa Station or Asakusa Station: the Keikyu Line
Going to Hamamatsucho Station, or to Tokyo Station and Ueno Station with one change: the Tokyo Monorail
Going to a hotel that is a bus stop, with big suitcases: the Airport Limousine bus
A family or group with lots of luggage, or a late arrival: a fixed-fare taxi or a car booked ahead

First: which terminal, and where's the station?

Haneda Airport has three terminals. According to the airport, Terminal 3 handles international flights and Terminal 2 also handles ANA's international flights, so check your ticket for the terminal number. The Keikyu Line has two stations: Haneda Airport Terminal 3 and Haneda Airport Terminal 1·2, which serves both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. The Tokyo Monorail has a separate station for each terminal. At Terminal 3, the ticket gates for both lines are on the 2nd floor, the arrival lobby (for Keikyu, these are the gates for central Tokyo and Yokohama (Kanagawa); the gates toward Terminals 1 and 2 are on the basement level). At Terminals 1 and 2, both lines leave from the B1 floor.

The four main ways into Tokyo

Adult one-way fares from Keikyu, Tokyo Monorail, Airport Transport Service (Airport Limousine) and Tokyo Hire-Taxi Association official pages (checked October 17, 2026). Times are the companies' listed times and can change.

Keikyu Line: to Shinagawa Station, and direct toward Asakusa Station

The Keikyu Line runs from both of its airport stations to Shinagawa Station, where you can change to JR lines such as the Yamanote Line and the Shinkansen. Keikyu lists 11 minutes from Terminal 3 and 14 minutes from Terminal 1·2. Some trains continue onto the Toei Subway without a change, and Keikyu lists 34 minutes from Terminal 3 to Asakusa Station.

Fare: Keikyu's fare table shows 330 yen with a paper ticket and 327 yen with an IC card (Suica or PASMO) from either airport station to Shinagawa Station. There's no extra charge for the faster trains.
Tickets: the ticket machines take cash or a credit card, and an IC card lets you walk straight through the gate.
Late and early: as of Keikyu's notice dated December 13, 2025, the last train from Terminal 3 toward Shinagawa Station leaves at 0:08 and the first at 5:26, every day.
KEIKYU Hanetoku Ticket & Tokyo Subway Ticket: a set of a Keikyu ride between the airport and Sengakuji Station and a 24-, 48- or 72-hour pass for all Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway lines (1,600, 2,100 or 2,600 yen for adults). It's sold online only before your trip, through the sites Keikyu lists, and can't be bought at the airport.

Tokyo Monorail: to Hamamatsucho Station, then JR

The Tokyo Monorail runs from all three terminals to Hamamatsucho Station, where you change to JR lines such as the Yamanote Line. Its guide for international arrivals lists 13 minutes to Hamamatsucho and says trains run on average every 5 minutes.

Fare: 520 yen with a paper ticket or 519 yen with an IC card to Hamamatsucho Station, from any of the three airport stations (child 260 yen, or 259 yen with an IC card).
Monorail and Yamanote Line Discount Ticket: 590 yen from any Haneda Airport station to any station on the Yamanote Line. The monorail says it's sold on weekends, holidays and other select dates.
Where to board at Terminal 3: leave the arrival lobby on the 2nd floor, turn left to the monorail gates, then take the escalator up to the platform for Hamamatsucho.

Times to the main areas

Haneda Airport publishes rough train times to the main stations. These include a change of trains where one is needed.

Station	About	A common way
Shinagawa Station	15 min	Keikyu Line, direct
Hamamatsucho Station	20 min	Tokyo Monorail, direct
Tokyo Station	30 min	Monorail, then JR
Ueno Station	40 min	Monorail, then JR
Asakusa Station	40 min	Keikyu Line (some trains direct)
Shibuya Station	45 min	Keikyu Line, then JR
Shinjuku Station	50 min	Keikyu Line, then JR

The two airport lines, and where to change

Times are Haneda Airport's estimates (official page, checked October 17, 2026). The lines show a common way to each station, not the only one.

Airport Limousine buses: to hotels and the Shinjuku Station area

Airport Limousine buses (Airport Transport Service) run from all three terminals to stations and hotels across Tokyo. If your hotel is one of the stops, you don't have to carry your luggage through train transfers. For example, the route to the Shinjuku Station area (Shinjuku Station, the expressway bus terminal and several hotels) costs 1,400 yen for adults and 700 yen for children, and its timetable includes departures after midnight from Terminal 3. Buses use the expressway, so travel time depends on traffic; check the timetable for your terminal on the official site.

Fixed-fare taxis: by ward, plus tolls

The Tokyo Hire-Taxi Association sets fixed fares from Haneda Airport to most of Tokyo's 23 wards. No reservation is needed: go to the taxi area at your terminal. Expressway tolls are added on top (the fixed fare assumes the Shuto Expressway), and a higher fixed fare applies between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. A few examples from the chart that took effect on April 20, 2026:

Ward	Fixed fare	10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Chiyoda (Tokyo), around Tokyo Station	7,600 yen	9,000 yen
Shibuya (Tokyo), around Shibuya Station	8,500 yen	10,000 yen
Shinjuku (Tokyo), around Shinjuku Station	9,000 yen	10,700 yen
Taito (Tokyo), around Ueno Station and Asakusa Station	9,100 yen	10,800 yen
Sumida (Tokyo), around Tokyo Skytree	9,100 yen	10,700 yen

Some wards, including Minato, Chuo and Shinagawa, aren't on the fixed-fare chart, so the meter is used there. For one person a taxi costs many times the train, but for a family with suitcases, or after the last train, it can be the simplest choice.

Which one fits your trip?

Staying near Shinagawa Station or Asakusa Station: the Keikyu Line, often without a change.
Staying near Hamamatsucho Station, Tokyo Station or Ueno Station: the Tokyo Monorail, changing to JR at Hamamatsucho.
Staying near Shinjuku Station or Shibuya Station: the Keikyu Line and JR via Shinagawa, or the Airport Limousine bus if your hotel is a stop.
Lots of luggage, small children or a late arrival: a fixed-fare taxi, or a car booked before you fly.
