I am flying from Narita Airport to London on a plane which departs just after 10am local time. I intend on spending the night beforehand in Tokyo.
The Lonely Planet Japan guide book recommends that for Narita Airport, one leaves at least 4 hours before the flight (which to me sounds like I should plan to arrive at the airport 4 hours before departure, rather than leaving my accommodation 4 hours beforehand).
Either way, this sounds so excessive that I'd appreciate hearing from those who have made a similar journey who may be able to give me a more realistic time frame in which to arrive at Narita Airport from Tokyo! In case it makes a difference, I will be checking-in online.
Thanks
