The train was quick and comfortable. The only hiccup is picking up the tickets: there are two counters with long lines of tourists but only one allows pickup of etickets. But this fact is not clearly marked so it's possible to wait in line for nothing. Would be great to address which counter to go to, or improve the sinage at the airport, or allow etickets without pickup.

Convenient closeness from Taxi drop off was great. The QR code from online booking was not the ticket. Still need to go to ticket machine.

This is my first time visit Japan and I was thrilled to take this skyline train to Narita airport yesterday. The Uneo station location is very convenient. The only drawback was no elevator access from the ground entrance to the lower level ticketing and the gate.

The booking is very easy, the process and the payment. And the price had discount too. We were departed from Nippori Station, direction to the gate is very clear, the schedule is very sharp, and most of all the train is very cozy (we had reserved seat one).

Once we arrived at Nippori station, there was great signage to locate the Skyliner train and ticket station. We caught the next train, which was 20 minutes after we arrived, and experienced a very relaxing trip to terminal 1 at Narita Airport, even though it was raining outside. We were in a great frame of mind to do a little duty free shopping at Narita (japaneese whisky for me plus cologne for my son), and enjoyed one last great sushi lunch before catching our flight. Thanks Skyliner for making that leg of our journey an easy one.
