It would surely be at least 3 hours by using the plane including the transfer from HIJ (which is in the mountains, not even considering the dire fare to fly on a CRJ) to the city. Now the cheapest would be to drive from Narita and take advantage of the "cheap" tolls on the highways (Pickles' cat Smidgen could drive).
