Japan Transocean Air (JTA), a Japanese airline based in Okinawa, will partially change the contents of its campaign and waive cancellation fees on the Miyako–Tarama route due to heavy congestion.
The airline will revise part of its “JAL Life Status Program 2nd Anniversary Campaign” so that flights on this route booked on or after February 3 will no longer be eligible for the campaign. Flights that have already been booked will remain eligible.
In addition, JTA is seeking passengers who are willing to cooperate by canceling their reservations on the same route for travel between February 2 and 28. Cancellations can be made free of charge, and eligible passengers will be contacted sequentially at the email address registered at the time of booking.
The route has received a large number of reservations, making it difficult to secure new bookings. Although additional flights have been scheduled to secure necessary seats for local island residents, it is still difficult to make reservations, and thus further measures are being implemented. The airline is also considering adding more extra flights.
