Getting to Osaka Kansai Airport The main international gateway to Osaka is Kansai International Airport. Domestic flights, however, mostly arrive at Osaka’s northern Itami Airport (ITM), connected to the city by the Osaka Monorail. By train Shinkansen trains arrive at Shin-Osaka station to the north of the city center. Connect to the center with the Midosuji subway line. Local trains from Kobe, Kyoto and Nara arrive mostly at the Umeda and Namba stations. By bus Overnight highway buses from Tokyo and other areas can get you to Osaka for significantly less than a Shinkansen ticket. By boat There are ferry services from Osaka to Busan (South Korea) three times a week and Shanghai (China) twice weekly.
