I actually quite like flying into a Narita. (Regular traveler there) It’s nice to see a bit of the countryside and the contrast of it before the big city.

What does everyone have against Narita?<br>It's chilling and the train ride is like the intro to an anime

For my case, flying to Narita is probably worth it since 1. my tickets were cheaper + it's a non-stop flight 2. i should arrive around 15h30 so train and bus are available 3. for 30 minutes difference i don't mind the time of transport.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPFfb_thg6A&t=31">0:31</a> The Monorail doesn't go to Tokyo Station. You'll have to change to the Yamanote line or the Keihin Tohoku line at Hamamatsucho.

Nice video, one mistake not mentioned is when paying for something do not try to directly hand money to the clerk, put the money in the small metal tray on the counter next to the cash register. If you get change the clerk will put your change into the tray for you to get. Also another mistake is trying to tip. That is a big no no in Japan. You are disgracing the person by making them feel that they are not being paid enough for their job and they will return your tip to you. The two words for please that you used, the first one means please take me (like when getting into a taxi) or please do me a favor, the second one means please bring me something like when you are ordering something. There is also another word for please which is dozo, which means I am offering you something to take or I want you to go ahead of me.

1 mistake that took me awhile to realize was the small dish of sorts at the cashier is where 1 is suppose to put the money or card. I casually handed payments to the cashiers and they gave me a confused look 😅
