Rail travel on the Shinkansen provides direct access from Higashihiroshima to Nagoya Station in the heart of the city, avoiding the long check-in times associated with flights. Buses are available but require significantly longer journey times, often exceeding 6 hours. While flights exist between nearby Hiroshima Airport and Nagoya, they require additional airport transfers which make the Shinkansen the most time-effective choice for this specific corridor.
