Skyliner (Narita Airport <> Ueno) | 來回成田機場和上野

I was sitting on my seat comfortably with power charging my phone and warm drink while I was typing this article. I was not as home! I was on the train heading to Tokyo Narita airport! I was on board the Skyliner express train.

當我寫這篇文章時，我舒服地坐着，一邊替手機充電，一邊喝着暖飲。但我並非安坐家中，我其實是在一輛定在駛往東京成田機場的高速火車中。是的，我正在乘坐Skyliner高速列車。

Skyliner is the express train operates betweem Narita Airport and Ueno. It takes only 45 mins and ¥2470. It is probably the cheapest and fastest way to travel between Tokyo city center and Narita Airport. However, it is not the most popular way because its terminal is at Ueno, which is not a popular spot for tourists to stay.

Skyliner是運行於東京成田機場至上野的高速機場鐵路。全程只需45分鐘，¥2470。可以說是最平，亦是最快的來往東京市區和成田機場的交通工具。可惜因為它的終點站是在上野，所以並不是很受歡迎。因為上野並非遊客住宿的熱門地點。

I used to use Skyliner a lot when I traveled to Tokyo by myself or with my wife. However, after our kids were born, we were not taking trains anymore, instead, most of the time we took buses or drove ourselves. It had been more than 10 years since my last ride on Skyliner.

我一直喜歡乘坐Skyliner,可是在女兒們出生之後，我們到東京時，多數選擇坐巴士或者是自駕。所以我已經有十年以上沒有乘坐這高速火車。

I was staying in Ueno in last trip due to the locations I had to go to work, so it was a no brainer to choose Skyliner again.

由於工作地點的緣故，令次我住在上野。順理成章的，我選擇乘搭Skyliner.

As I arrived Narita airport at early morning, the ticket office was not yet open, so I could only buy a normal train ticket at the ticketing machine. Then I had to buy the additional express train ticket at the dedicated ticketing machine at platform.

由於我一大早就到達成田機場，售票處還未開始營業，我只好在售票機買了一張普通的火車票。再到月台上的特別售賣機購買Skyliner的高速列車票。

All seats on Skyliner are reserved, seat location was printed on the ticket. So you should go to the correct car no. to wait.

列車上的座位是全部有預留的。在車票上印有車卡和座位編號。只需去到相對應的車卡號碼處候車即可。

Then found your seat after boarding the train. Luggages could be stored at both end of the car. There was power outlet at the bottom of the seats in front of you. You could also use table for your food, drinks and other stuffs.

上車後就要跟編號找回自己的座位。行李可以放在車箱的兩端。如有需要，前邊座位下面有電源插頭。當然有卓子啦。

Now you just need to relax, settled down and waited for the train to arrive your destination. When I was typing this time, there was announcement that the train will arrive in 5 mins, real fast! When you travel to Tokyo next time, consider taking Skyliner, you will like it!
