## Overview

## Welcome

Chubu Centrair International Airport (NGO) is not merely a transportation hub; it's a unique blend of onsen resort and aviation theme park. Just 35 km south of Nagoya, it boasts attractions like a public bath with runway views, a flight-themed shopping mall, and a Boeing 787 mock-up. It's a place where you might want to arrive early, not only to catch your flight on time but to indulge in local Nagoya culinary delights, enjoy a hot spring soak, or take a leisurely stroll along the Sky Deck.

## At a glance

Handling around 12 million passengers annually with a single runway, Chubu Centrair International Airport is home to two terminals: T1 and T2. T1 hosts airlines like All Nippon Airways and Japan Airlines, while T2 caters primarily to low-cost carriers such as Skymark Airlines and Jetstar Japan. Passengers have access to 23 dining spots, 22 shops, and 19 lounges spread across these terminals.

## Terminals & layout

T1 is the hub for most international and domestic flights, offering a comprehensive range of services including Premium Lounge Centrair, Korea Air Lounge, and various restaurants serving local specialties, such as Maruya Honten and Tonkotsu Ramen Mentatsu. T2 serves as a dedicated area for low-cost carriers, featuring the Premium Lounge and several retail outlets like Standard Coffee by ROYAL. The terminals are connected by a free shuttle bus that runs every 15 minutes.

## Getting to and from the city

Chubu Centrair is well-connected to Nagoya city by a range of transportation options. The Meitetsu Airport Express is the fastest rail service to Nagoya Station, taking about 30 minutes with tickets costing approximately 1,400 yen, though savvy travelers may find cheaper options by pre-booking online. Alternatively, airport buses offer a direct route to Nagoya and surrounding areas, with fares starting at 1,800 yen. A taxi ride to Nagoya Station might set you back around 16,000 yen and takes about 50 minutes.

## Traveller essentials

NGO offers a plethora of amenities for a comfortable transit. Wi-Fi is readily available throughout the airport, and multiple counters like Global WiFi and Ninja WiFi offer SIM cards and pocket Wi-Fi rentals in T2. For those driving in, there are ample parking spaces in P1 through P4, although peak holiday times can see congestion.

## Dining & shopping highlights

The airport's dining scene largely centers around T1, where travelers can savor local dishes such as hitsumabushi and miso katsu on the fourth floor's "Sky Town" area. Komeda Coffee offers a highly recommended breakfast deal from 7:00 to 11:00. The Flight of Dreams building houses The Pike Brewing Restaurant and Craft Beer Bar, a quieter alternative for beer aficionados, boasting a robust tap list away from the main hustle.

## Lounges

For those seeking a quieter retreat, T1 offers a variety of lounges including the Sakura Lounge and the Coral Finest Business Class Lounge Kaede. However, it’s crucial to note that several lounges are landside, which may require backtracking or re-clearing security, so checking their locations in advance is advised. The T2 Premium Lounge offers a peaceful respite for low-cost airline passengers.
