Cut your transportation costs with the Monorail and Yamanote Line Discount Ticket!
The Tokyo Monorail is the most efficient way to get from Haneda Airport to the Tokyo city center. You have 13 minutes to enjoy the panoramic view from the windows of its above street level track as you make your way to Hamamatsucho Station (to transfer to the JR Yamanote Line). Once again in collaboration with Tokyo Monorail, we’d like to bring you the latest transportation info in hopes of helping your travels run as smoothly as possible.
Some of you may remember our previous article about the economical Monorail and Yamanote Line Discount Ticket that can be used on weekends and holidays. This discount ticket will get you from Haneda Airport to Hamamatsucho Station via the Tokyo Monorail, and then to your desired stop on the JR Yamanote Line for only 500 yen (250 yen for children). It costs 490 yen to get from the Haneda Airport International Terminal Station to Hamamatsucho Station under regular circumstances. This is already almost equivalent to the price of a Monorail and Yamanote Line Discount Ticket, which makes the cost of getting to your desired Yamanote Line station a true bargain.
※Please keep in mind this ticket is only valid for a single one-way trip from Haneda Airport.
So where can this ticket take you? We recommend Shinjuku’s NEWoMan! This new commercial facility opened at the end of March, 2016 at JR Shinjuku Station's New South Exit.
