A feature called “Nishi2 Survey (tentative),” where we turn a “quick question for readers + results from the previous question” into an article👏 Updated every Friday at 8 p.m.
(Inspired by Hiratsu, which runs surveys. This is a tribute project to Hirakata Tsushin.)
This article is brought to you by “chotto,” a smoothie specialty shop that supports Nishi2.

Now, here are the “reasons why you like that airport.”
It’s close to home❗ When I was a kid, it was bustling as an international airport, and when I worked part-time there, I saw Chage and Aska. I’ve never been to Kansai Airport or Kobe Airport〰💦
Woman in her 50s
I can get there from home by taxi for around 4,000 yen, so it’s really helpful when I have a lot of luggage or when I’m tired.
Man age 60 or older
It’s been around forever.
Man in his 40s
You can get there directly by bus.
Man in his 40s
Because it’s close to Nishinomiya and has flights to many cities.
Man in his 20s
Because there’s cheap parking nearby.
Man in his 40s
Because I’ve used it for a long time. What I remember most is during the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, when Hankyu trains resumed service to Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi, so I went to Itami Airport and evacuated to my grandmother’s house in Shimane Prefecture.
Woman in her 40s
It’s just so convenient. When I’m driving on Route 171, I find myself silently hoping I’ll get caught at a red light so I can watch the planes take off.
Woman in her 50s
I’m used to going there, and it’s close to Nishinomiya.
Woman in her 40s
I’m from Toyonaka, so I feel a real sense of familiarity with it!
Man in his 50s
Even if you arrive early, you can see planes up close and watch takeoffs and landings.
Man in his 50s
It’s close, there are lots of limousine buses, and they’re quick and convenient.
Man in his 50s
It’s the closest to my house. The airport isn’t too big, so it’s easy to look around. And you can see planes on approach up close.
Woman in her 50s
Read to the bottom and please answer the next survey too~😀
Because there are many domestic flights.
Man in his 40s
It’s close, about 20 minutes by car, and has many domestic flights.
Man in his 40s
It’s close to home.
Woman in her 40s
It’s close to home~ You can get there by the Chugoku Expressway or Route 176~
Man in his 50s
The ultimate domestic travel hub!!! 25 minutes by bus is unbeatable!!!!
Man in his 40s
It was recently renovated, and there are lots of good shops even if you’re not using the airport.
Man in his 20s
It’s spacious and has lots of shops.
Woman in her 40s
Because Peach is there for LCC flights.
Man age 60 or older
There are people from all kinds of countries, so it makes you feel like you’re about to go abroad. There are plenty of shops, and at the restaurant on the observation deck you can eat in-flight meals, so it feels out of the ordinary.
Man in his 30s
Because I often use Peach.
Man in his 40s
It gives me that exciting “I’m going overseas!” feeling. I like the bridge to Kansai Airport. The airport is big, so I never get bored.
Woman in her 40s
My workplace is nearby.
Woman in her 40s
Because Skymark is the best.
Woman in her 20s
Because parking is cheap.
Woman age 60 or older
It’s compact, so you don’t have to walk much.
Man in his 20s
It’s not crowded.
Woman in her 40s
Just a little more until the final comment, and please answer the next survey too~😀
It’s close. It’s not crowded.
Man in his 50s
I like passing over the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge during takeoff and landing.
Man in his 40s
It has good transportation access.
Man in his 30s
My favorite is definitely “Kobe Airport.” More than anything, you get there quickly. Since you don’t need to take a bus, you usually arrive on schedule. Also, after takeoff and arrival, it’s fast and doesn’t spend time circling around as if dragging things out before reaching the apron. The luggage comes out quickly too.
Man in his 50s
The gates are close, and the airport is compact. Also, access is convenient no matter how you get there.
Man in his 50s
The view of Kobe from the sea is beautiful. It’s compact and convenient.
Man in his 30s
Because it’s quick from Sannomiya if you take the Port Liner. There are LCCs too, so you can travel cheaply.
Man in his 20s
It’s easy to get to, the scenery is beautiful, and parking is inexpensive.
Woman age 60 or older
The airport is compact and well laid out.
Man in his 50s
Close to the station.
Man in his 40s
It’s close and easy to get to, and since it’s not very crowded, it’s easy to use. It’s convenient because there are lots of Skymark flights, which are cheap and comfortable. I also like FDA, so I’m happy they fly there too. I used to use LCCs at Kansai Airport, but after moving to Nishinomiya, I started using Itami and Kobe when taking travel time and train fare into account.

Next survey
Next time, the question is:
When someone asks where you live, what do you say?

Do you say “Nishinomiya”?
Or are you the type to answer with the station name or neighborhood??
It may depend on who’s asking, but in true @Nishi2 style, please keep it relaxed and think about it casually (^o^)
Please answer with what you usually say.
