Your final day in Japan should feel free, not frantic. Yet for many travelers, it turns into a familiar routine: dragging a bulky suitcase around Ueno, hunting for a full coin locker, then giving up and heading to the airport far too early.
From January 16, 2026, that scenario changes completely. A new same-day baggage delivery service at Keisei Ueno Station lets you drop off your luggage in the morning and pick it up at Narita Airport that evening. Your last day in Tokyo just became lighter, longer, and far more enjoyable.
No More Locker Hunting on Your Last Day
Ueno is one of Tokyo’s most rewarding sightseeing areas, packed with museums, parks, markets, and local neighborhoods. It is also notorious for sold-out lockers. Rolling a large suitcase over stone paths and through crowded streets can drain the joy from even the best itinerary.
That is exactly what the Keisei Ueno Station Baggage Counter is designed to solve. With the new service, you can explore freely knowing your bags are already on their way to the airport.
How the Same-Day Delivery Works (It’s Surprisingly Simple)
You might wonder if same-day delivery really works. It does, and the process is refreshingly straightforward.
Step 1: Morning drop-off
Leave your luggage at the Keisei Ueno Station baggage counter by 12 PM. No advance reservation is required. Just drop, go, and start sightseeing.
Step 2: Evening pick-up
Collect your bags between 4 PM and 9 PM at the JAL ABC Counter at Narita Airport. By then, your day of hands-free exploration is complete.
This creates a perfect final-day flow. Enjoy lunch in Ueno, wander through nearby districts, then board the Keisei Skyliner without luggage taking up your space.
Clear Pricing, No Guesswork
The fee is a simple all-in package that includes storage, delivery, and tax.
・Suitcases (total size up to 200 cm, up to 30 kg): 4,000 yen per item
・Sports equipment such as snowboards or golf bags: 5,000 yen per item
For many travelers, the freedom gained is well worth the cost. No lifting, no squeezing onto trains, and no worrying about where your suitcase will end up next.
