Tokyo helicopter link

ANA is set to introduce on 16 September a complimentary helicopter transport from Tokyo Narita (NRT) to central Tokyo for First Class passengers from the major US and European cities.  On arrival at NRT, the premium passengers will be taken by limousine to the nearby Narita (Sakura) Heliport.  From there it is a 15-minute helicopter flight to Ark Hills Heliport in the centrally located Akasaka district which hosts many multi-national companies, embassies, major hotels and retail centres.  The service will be operated with Eurocopter EC135s seating 4-5 passengers.  Narita is nearly 40 miles from downtown Tokyo with a heavily congested highway connection or a semi-direct suburban train.  In 2010 a high speed train is expected to reduce the travel time to 36 minutes. www.ana.co.jp/wws/uk/e
