Tokyo (Haneda) Airport Taxi vs Uber (via JapanTaxi) — Prices, Safety, Verdict

Haneda (HND) is only 20 km south of central Tokyo — much closer than Narita. Uber Taxi + GO both operate. Metered taxi is honest but expensive. Monorail + Keikyu Line trains beat every road option on cost.

  • Late night: Taxi — trains run 05:00-24:00 only.
  • Business: Uber via JapanTaxi — receipts + English UX.

Best value alternative

Tokyo Monorail direct to Hamamatsucho (JR Yamanote Line) in 20 min for ¥520. Keikyu Line to Shinagawa in 15 min for ¥300-600 (depending on train type). Both trains are 10-20x cheaper than taxi.
