Wait in the terminal

Free

Terminal 3 stays open all night on both of its floors, which makes it the usual place to sit out the gap. Every terminal has a 24-hour convenience store.

  • Terminal 3 — 1st and 2nd floors open 24 hours
  • Terminal 1 — 1st floor and B1F open 24 hours; the other floors close 24:00–05:00
  • Terminal 2 — 2nd floor, 1st floor and B1 open 24 hours; a 24-hour Yoshinoya is in the main building

Flat-rate taxi

¥23,500–38,500

Flat fares into Tokyo run ¥23,500–¥38,500 depending on the zone and routing, plus expressway tolls, with a surcharge between 22:00 and 05:00. That is nine to fifteen times the ¥2,580 Skyliner fare, so treat it as a last resort rather than a plan.

  • Zone A — Edogawa, Katsushika, Adachi · via Keiyo Road ¥23,500 · via Bayshore ¥26,500
  • Zone B — Koto, Sumida, Minato (Daiba), Shinagawa (Higashi-yashio) · via Keiyo Road ¥28,000 · via Bayshore ¥28,000
  • Zone C — Chuo, Chiyoda, Taito, Bunkyo, Arakawa · via Keiyo Road ¥29,000 · via Bayshore ¥31,000
  • Zone D — Shinjuku, Toshima, Nakano, Shibuya, Meguro, Minato (excl. Daiba), Shinagawa (excl. Higashi-yashio), Ota · via Keiyo Road ¥31,500 · via Bayshore ¥32,500
  • Zone E — Itabashi, Kita, Nerima · via Keiyo Road ¥34,000 · via Bayshore ¥36,000
  • Zone F — Setagaya, Suginami, Mitaka, Musashino · via Keiyo Road ¥35,500 · via Bayshore ¥38,500

Expressway tolls are extra. A late-night and early-morning surcharge applies 22:00–05:00; the rate is not stated on the airport's official page. Going via the Aqua-Line costs more, and the meter is used if you choose a non-expressway route.

No late-night bus

Narita's official night and early-morning guide and its bus page list no late-night departure. Haneda has one; Narita does not — so do not plan around a bus that is not there. Use one of the three options above.

Before you settle in

  • Terminals 1 and 2 close some floors between 24:00 and 05:00, so move to a floor that stays open before midnight.
  • After midnight, food is limited to the 24-hour convenience stores and the 24-hour Yoshinoya in Terminal 2.
  • A taxi is the only door-to-door option overnight, and it starts at ¥23,500 plus tolls.

Good to know

Can I stay inside Narita Airport overnight?

Yes. Terminal 3 keeps both its 1st and 2nd floors open 24 hours. Terminal 1 keeps its 1st floor and B1F open 24 hours, and Terminal 2 keeps its 2nd floor, 1st floor and B1 open; the other floors close between 24:00 and 05:00. Each terminal has a 24-hour convenience store, and Terminal 2 has a 24-hour Yoshinoya.

Is there a late-night bus from Narita?

No late-night departure is listed. Narita's official night and early-morning guide and its bus page do not list a late-night bus, so plan on waiting in the terminal, a capsule hotel, or a flat-rate taxi instead. The last Skyliner leaves Terminal 1 at 23:00, and Keisei Main Line trains toward Ueno run until 22:33.

How much is a taxi from Narita to central Tokyo?

Flat fares run from ¥23,500 to ¥38,500 depending on the zone and the routing, plus expressway tolls. A late-night and early-morning surcharge applies between 22:00 and 05:00; the rate is not stated on the airport's official page. For comparison, the Skyliner into Tokyo is ¥2,580 — the taxi is a last resort rather than a plan.

What time do trains start again in the morning?

From the airport, the first Keisei Main Line train toward Ueno leaves at 05:47, the first Access Express toward Asakusa at 05:41, and the first Skyliner at 07:23 on weekdays. If your flight leaves at dawn, staying at the airport the night before is usually easier than travelling out to it.
