Hi again! I still confused about children fares on Keisei Skyliner and other non-JR trains Children fares. One of my kids is 12 but still at primary school in Sweden. I know all rules about japanese rules for Children and school terms. Here Keisei says clearly: *Prices in brackets are childrenfs fares."Children" means passengers between the ages of 6 and 11 (or up to 12 if still in primary school).". And I suppose this explanation is not for japanese people but for us from over-seas.
I consider to book Keisei + subway package for all family Before we are going to Tokyo. But I still worry about this detail about Primary school - but 12 years old. Should I prepare any paper from Oskars school that will proof he is still at primary. Is it necessary? Or is it just purchase packages at the Keisei web? We are 2 adults and 4 boys who are 17, 13, 12 and 8. "Economical mother" :-) Regards.

I believe many railway companies in Japan including JR have that rule, namely, adult fare starts at age 12, but a child who is 12-year-old and still in primary school (up to 6th grade in Japan) is considered a child, and this applies not just to non-Japanese but also to locals as well.
I am checking Keisei Railway's website in Japanese, and they say adult fare starts at "junior high/middle school," and child fare is for elementary/primary schoolkids.

Whether or not a 12-year-old is eligible for child fare does not depend on whether they are actually in primary school (which is impossible to verify for foreign children), but on their date of birth.
