The Keisei Narita Airport Line (Japanese: 京成成田空港線, Hepburn: Keisei Narita Kūkō-sen) is a Japanese railway line connecting Keisei Takasago Station and Narita Airport Terminal 1 Station. The entire route from Keisei Ueno Station, including the Keisei Main Line as far as Keisei Takasago, is branded Narita Sky Access (成田スカイアクセス, Narita Sukai Akusesu).
The Keisei Electric Railway operates over the entire line, while other companies, such as Hokuso Railway, operate over certain sections of it. The new line is used by Skyliner limited express services, operating at up to 160 km/h (100 mph) using Keisei AE series EMUs. Skyliner is the fastest and most expensive service (with reserved seating and luggage racks), followed by the Sky Access (which has space for luggage), and then the Keisei Limited Express (regular commuter train).
