Like this article?

To get into Tokyo from Narita Airport you can catch a cab— and pay more than $150 for a trip that can take two hours— or you can hop the rail link from the terminal for as little as $7.50 and be there in just over an hour. That's what you call a no-brainer. Here's a sampling of cities with economical direct rail service from the airport. Keep in mind that taxi travel times are variable; rush-hour traffic can sometimes cause dramatic increases.
