Japan Airlines (JAL) today announced revisions to the flight frequency and fleet plans on both international and domestic routes for FY2019.

In regards to the airline's network in Hawaii, JAL will seasonally feature First Class service between Tokyo (Narita) and Honolulu during the year-end and New Year period. Additionally, JAL will continue to expand the operation of the well-received JAL SKY SUITE1configured Boeing 787-9 aircraft on the Honolulu route.

On Japan domestic routes, the carrier will increase the flight frequency between Tokyo (Haneda) and Sapporo (New Chitose) in line with the seasonal demand on this route. Starting September 1, 2019, JAL will operate the much anticipated Airbus A350-900 aircraft2from Tokyo (Haneda) to Fukuoka airport. In the following months, JAL will progressively introduce the aircraft on the Tokyo (Haneda) = Sapporo (New Chitose) and Tokyo (Haneda) = Okinawa (Naha) routes.

In addition, JAL plans to launch the carrier`s first domestic configured Boeing 787-8 aircraft3between Tokyo (Haneda) and Osaka (Itami) starting October 27, 2019. In December, the aircraft will also be introduced on the carrier`s Tokyo (Haneda) = Fukuoka route.

The JAL Group will continue to embrace new challenges to deliver greater customer convenience and comfort, enhance its networks, and improve the quality of its products and services.

The following plans and schedules are subject to government approval.
