I suggest taking another flight.

Thank me later.
Oh no! If only I’d seen this in time.

Last August I was on JL42 (LHR - HND) which arrived at exactly the same time as BA7

As a group of 4, we went down to the Grande Aile for a buffet breakfast then took the monorail to Hamamatsuchō station. From there we took one of the two waiting taxis for the short hop to our residence. Comfortable, convenient, quick.

We knew that there was building work going on on the Takanawa side of Shinagawa station which was affecting the area empty taxis can occupy, I’m assuming this is still the case.

Next week, MrLapLap will be on BA7 willingly repeating the experience.
