Higashi-Narita Station opened on 21 May 1978 as Narita Airport Station, the terminus of the Keisei Main Line at the new airport, timed to the start of flight operations; the airport itself had opened the previous day, 20 May. The station sat inside the airport perimeter but could not link directly to the terminal because the site was reserved for the planned Narita Shinkansen; passengers used a paid shuttle bus or walked to the Terminal 1 building, then the airport's only terminal. On 19 March 1991 the Narita Airport Rapid Railway opened on infrastructure originally built for the abandoned Narita Shinkansen, taking JR East and Keisei trains directly into the terminals. The former main line between Keisei-Narita and the airport was split off as the Higashi-Narita Line and the station was renamed Higashi-Narita. The Shibayama Railway opened on 27 October 2002, making the station a Keisei–Shibayama joint-use facility, and the 26 October 2019 timetable revision eliminated the last scheduled trains terminating here.

Higashi-Narita's disused 'Express' platforms — closed when the line was rebranded in 1991 — still carry station signs reading 'Narita Airport' and crumbling advertising posters from the year of the renaming, including a Tobu Spacia ad aimed at foreign tourists.
