Star Flyer has unveiled the outline of its next medium-term management strategy.
While maintaining profitability on its domestic routes, the airline aims to increase revenue and profit through the expansion of international flights to East Asia. By earning foreign currency, it seeks to strengthen its resilience against market fluctuations.
Since the Kyushu region in Japan is geographically close to Asia, with Kitakyushu Airport capable of 24-hour operations and Fukuoka Airport having the potential for increased departure and arrival slots, the airline will consider new destinations in East Asia as its primary target. From fiscal 2030 onward, it also aims to expand its network to Southeast Asia.
Through these initiatives, Star Flyer plans to achieve sales of 60 billion yen in fiscal 2028, of which 15 billion yen will come from international routes. Operating profit is projected to reach 4 to 5 billion yen in fiscal 2028, and 8 to 10 billion yen in fiscal 2035. Net assets are expected to increase to 10 billion yen by fiscal 2028 and 20 billion yen by fiscal 2035, raising the equity ratio to 25–30% and ROE to at least 8–19% in fiscal 2035.
