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.

Pre-paying for a ticket saves so much time as you will see a line forming at the ticket counter for everyone who did not pre-book a ticket. I simply just went to the other ticket counter and they printed out my physical ticket. Seats are great and super clean, tons of space for luggage and the ride is picturesque and smooth!
