Exactly. Daily commuting charges would make it more expensive than many Tokyo hotels, nevermind it being more than an hour each way. Great fare, though.Originally Posted by abcx
Too bad NRT is so far from TYO.

7 day JR pass is $345 USD, so for two equals $100/day. We were going to buy one anyway, so why not save $1400 on hotels(compared to our Marriott Courtyard)? Of course if we change our mind we are only out $127 anyway. We like people watching on the train, so that's a plus.Originally Posted by tkey75

You can get to Tokyo for about 1,000 yen via bus. Reports are pretty positive:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/japan...ear-round.html
The local trains are also about 1,000.
Mix it up with the fastest possible route -- the Keisei Skyliner. (Not part of the JR network)
You can also get a JR East pass for five days (consecutive) or four days (flexible) is 20K yen. (about $240 at current exchange rates).

The JR East pass is also valid on high speed trains to places like Nagano and Aomori. (But not valid on trains to Kyoto etc.)

Thank you for the information. Our current plans do call for a day trip(s) to Kyoto and maybe others in W. Japan. We also might spend the night there as well.Originally Posted by jib71
