The Higashi-Narita Station(ja|東成田駅, pronounced as /ja/) is a passenger railway station in the city of Narita, Chiba, Japan, operated jointly by the private railway operator Keisei Electric Railway, and the third sector company Shibayama Railway.
Higashi-Narita Station is served by the Keisei Higashi-Narita Line from, with some morning and evening peak through services to and from in Tokyo via the Keisei Main Line. Higashi-Narita Station lies 7.4 km from the starting point of the Keisei Higashi-Narita Line at Keisei Narita. It is also served by the 2.2 km Shibayama Railway Line to Shibayama-Chiyoda Station.
The station is an underground station with an island platform serving two tracks. It is equidistant from the two stations serving Terminal 1 and Terminals 2 and 3 of Narita International Airport, and can be accessed by a 500m (1,600feet) underground walkway to the latter station.
The station opened on 21 May 1978, as . Passengers who took the Keisei Electric Railway to Narita Airport would disembark at the station and then either take a shuttle bus for an additional fare or walk to the terminal (present-day Terminal 1, which was the sole passenger terminal of the airport until 1992). A dedicated railway station at Terminal 1 opened in 1991 with the name Narita Airport Station, and the former Narita Airport Station was then renamed Higashi-Narita Station. Many of the former stores located in the lobby area of the station have been blocked off by a wall. The island platform for the Skyliner services is now no longer accessible, and its tracks are used for parking out-of-service trains. From October 2002, the Shibayama Railway Line began operations.[1] The station is largely superseded by the Narita Airport Terminal 1 Station and the Narita Airport Terminal 2·3 Station, which were opened in 1991 and 1992 respectively.
Station numbering was introduced to all Keisei Line stations on 17 July 2010; Higashi-Narita Station was assigned station number KS44.[2] [3]
In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 1,796 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[4]
