Chubu Centrair International Airport by train
Chubu Centrair International Airport by train
The Meitetsu Airport Line (名鉄空港線) connects the airport via Jingumae and Kanayama to Nagoya station. From here, you can transfer to the Tokaido Shinkansen line, as well as a multitude of other train lines for connections throughout the Chubu region. Some trains continue directly onward to Gifu and Inuyama. Note that trains to Toyohashi (one per hour) run east from the airport and do not pass through Nagoya!
?SKY (? pronounced myuu) rapid limited expresses (快速特急 kaisoku-tokkyu) run twice per hour and do the trip in just 28 minutes, while other services (total 4 per hour) stop more and take longer. The price of all services is the same, except that reserved seats cost an extra �350, and ?SKY trains have only reserved seats. The only stops between Nagoya and airport are Kanayama and Jingumae.
If you are traveling with children, more than one small overhead compartment suitcase, or passengers who need special assistance (wheelchair), it's worth it to pay the small premium for the ?SKY rather than the Meitetsu limited express line. On the normal trains, there isn't much room for baggage and the inside of the train compartments tend to become very congested the closer you get to Nagoya, and even more so during the morning and afternoon commutes from work and school.
If you are planning to use the Japan Rail Pass, you must note that Meitetsu, as a private railway, is not covered, nor can you exchange your rail pass voucher at the airport. You must wait until you reach Nagoya station to exchange your voucher for the pass. The exchange can be made at the Japan Rail Pass Exchange Corner from 10:00 to 19:00, or at the regular ticket counter at other times.
