Airport transfers in Japan compete with excellent trains: Narita Express and the Keisei Skyliner from Narita, the monorail and Keikyu line from Haneda, and the Haruka from Kansai airport to Kyoto. A private transfer earns its price with luggage, late arrivals after the last train around midnight, families, and hotels away from stations. Drivers meet at arrivals with a name board, and Japanese cars have small boots, so state the number of large suitcases when booking. Tolls are included in most quotes; confirm.
