What NGO to MNL looks like
The NGO to MNL sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Nagoya NGO to Manila MNL is a medium haul sector of 2,760 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 2,760 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 4h 01m.
Nagoya NGO is a mid sized airport in the network held here, 46 scheduled destinations and 134.5 departures a day. Manila MNL has 80 destinations and 426.8 departures a day.
Manila carries about 3.2 times the departures of Nagoya, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Manila is one hour behind of Nagoya all year.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on NGO to MNL from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| NGO to MNL | 1.57 | 11 | Cebu Pacific Air, Philippine Airlines |
| MNL to NGO | 1.57 | 11 | Cebu Pacific Air, Philippine Airlines |
Two carriers hold the sector, Cebu Pacific Air and Philippine Airlines, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
Between them the two directions put about 22 departures a week on NGO to MNL, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 4h 01m block time on NGO to MNL. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to NGO | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At NGO before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| NGO to MNL in the air, estimated | 241 min | 8h 31m |
| Formalities at MNL | 90 min | 10h 01m |
| Delivery run in Manila | 45 min | 10h 46m |
| Door to door | 646 min | 10h 46m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for NGO to MNL is 10h 46m.
A courier who leaves Nagoya at 09:00 local is on the ground in Manila at about 12:01 local and at the door by 14:16 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Manila, the last useful departure from Nagoya is around 12:44 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 16 of them join NGO to MNL.
| Connecting at | NGO to hub, flights a day | Hub to MNL, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fukuoka FUK | 9.86 | 1.57 | 2,925 | 5h 51m |
| Taipei TPE | 8.14 | 13.14 | 3,024 | 6h 07m |
| Busan PUS | 2.29 | 1.14 | 3,148 | 6h 09m |
| Tokyo HND | 3.57 | 4.29 | 3,277 | 6h 30m |
| Shanghai PVG | 3.71 | 3.14 | 3,308 | 6h 44m |
| Seoul ICN | 9.71 | 11.57 | 3,582 | 6h 50m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at NGO in the afternoon actually flies on.
16 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Fukuoka FUK, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about once a day.
Through FUK the routing covers 2,925 km against the 2,760 km nonstop track and takes about 5h 51m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 50m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Taipei TPE at 6h 07m and Busan PUS at 6h 09m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Nagoya, Osaka ITM is 125 km away by great circle and carries 26 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for NGO to MNL in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
