International flights all come into Chubu - which is casually referred to as Nagoya airport, even though it`s not really in Nagoya. (Neither is the actual Nagoya Airport, to be honest.)
this should be directed at the OP who for some reason is flying into "Nagoya aiport" and going to tokyo right away

Im aware of Narita and Handa, I was just saying either of them would be easier/faster to get to Tokyo Eki directly then via "Nagoya Airport". I'm a bit confused as to why he/she is flying there in the first place if they need to get to Tokyo Eki ASAP.

well, that's good news for the thread starter cos putting "Nagoya Airport" (i didn't know about Chubu) in ekitan website it only shows buses going to Nagoya Eki. This makes things a lot easier for him/her I think.
