| Description | Skyliner is a limited-express airport train service between Tokyo and Narita Airport. It is operated by Keisei Electric Railway and runs on the Keisei Main Line. Skyliner operates at intervals of about 40 minutes between Keisei Ueno Station and Narita Airport Station, with stops at Nippori Station, Keisei Narita Station and Airport Terminal 2 Station. Although Ueno is a larger station with more lines, many passengers transfer at Nippori, as the Keisei tracks run parallel to the JR East Yamanote Line, Keihin-Tohoku Line and Joban Line, whereas transferring at Ueno requires a long walk from the Keisei station to the JR or Tokyo Metro station. The one-way ride between Narita Airport and Nippori takes about 56 minutes, with 5 additional minutes to reach Ueno, and costs Y1,920 each way (Y1,000 base fare + Y920 express surcharge). Prior to 9am leaving Narita and after 5.55pm leaving Tokyo, Skyliner is known as Morning Liner and Evening Liner, respectively. These trains make additional stops at Aoto Station, Yachiyodai in Yachiyo, and Sakura on their runs to and from Ueno and Narita Airport. The express surcharge is reduced to Y400 for these trains and tickets are only sold from the station not travel agents. (Some late evening trains, however, do not run to the airport at all.) Only Type AE100 trains run as Skyliner trains and each train is 8 cars long. Seat reservations are mandatory on Skyliner, Morning Liner, and Evening Liner. Smoking is prohibited except in the train's end cars. The main competition for Skyliner is JR East's Narita Express, which is more expensive but serves more major train stations directly. In 2010, Skyliner services will transfer to the Narita Rapid Railway, presently under construction, which is expected to give Skyliner a speed advantage over Narita Express (36 minutes to Nippori vs. 55 minutes to Tokyo Station).
