Under the ANA Holdings umbrella, the new mid-range international brand ‘AirJapan’ has launched ticket sales for the Tokyo/Narita to Seoul/Incheon route during its summer schedule period.
Following the Tokyo/Narita to Bangkok route, this becomes the second line to be established on February 22. Until April 28, there will be five weekly round trips on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday; from April 29 onwards, it will operate one round trip per day. The one-way fare starts from 8,000 yen, with no fuel surcharges, excluding other taxes.
AirJapan’s fare system is divided into three categories: ‘Simple’, ‘Standard’, and ‘Selected’, with a flat rate for infants. ‘Simple’ does not include paid options, ‘Standard’ includes advance seat selection (800 yen for Seoul/Incheon route) and one checked baggage up to 23 kg, ‘Selected’ includes advance seat selection (up to 1,200 yen) and two checked bags up to 23 kg each, including in-flight meals. All options allow for up to 7 kg of carry-on luggage free of charge.

The seats are made of synthetic leather, ensuring a seat pitch of 32 inches (about 81 cm), equivalent to the economy class of full-service carriers (FSC).
