Getting there:
 
If landing at Narita Airport (near Tokyo) to go directly to Nagasaki, take the Airport Limited Express to Haneda Airport (runs on the Keisei, Toei and Keihin lines, but with no need to change trains; approx. 110 min). From Haneda, fly to Nagasaki Airport (approx. 2 hours).
From Kansai International Airport, there is only one daily flight (approx. 80 min.) to Nagasaki Airport. If this is inconvenient, and you want to go directly to Nagasaki, take a train (approx.2 hours) to Osaka's other airport, Itami, then fly to Nagasaki Airport (approx. 80 min.).
About 1 hour by bus from Nagasaki Airport to the city center.
