Air Travel

Nagoya's compact, user-friendly Chubu Centrair International Airport (referred to locally as just "Centrair") serves overseas flights and is a hub for domestic travel. Many major airlines have offices in downtown Nagoya, 45 km (28 miles) northeast of the airport, including Japan Airlines (JAL) and All Nippon Airways (ANA), both of which fly from Nagoya to most major Japanese cities. The Meitetsu Airport Limited Express train makes the 28-minute run between Centrair and Nagoya Station for ¥1,230. This price includes a seat-reservation fee.
