Central Japan International Airport access rail timetable changes
Nagoya Railroad (or "Meitetsu") will revise its timetables on March
29th. This company operates trains from Nagoya and surrounding cities
to Central Japan International Airport ("Centrair"
http://www.centrair.jp/en/index.html).
Some features:
* Airport access trains that currently start or terminate at
Kanayama will come to Nagoya. 10 runs each direction.
Some Kanayama - Centrair runs will remain.
Kanayama is about two miles southeast of Nagoya. Like Nippori in Tokyo,
it is a smaller station and a friendlier transfer point for JR local and
rapid trains.
* Four additional airport access trains to and from satellite cities
west of Nagoya: Gifu, Ichinomiya, Unuma and Inuyama
* Cars will be added to airport access trains. More seats and more
luggage space. A new platform will start operation in the Centrair
Station. On some trains, travel time between Nagoya and the Centrair
Station will decrease by a few minutes (limited express and express).
- Still no direct service from Centrair to Toyota City.
The new timetable is available here:

This railway has some bottlenecks in its infrastructure. Delays are
rather frequent compared to trains elsewhere in Japan.
