ZIPAIR Tokyo or ZIPAIR, a newly established low cost carrier subsidiary of Japan Airlines, inaugurated its scheduled cargo flight from Narita to Bangkok, Thailand on June 3, 2020.
ZIPAIR, a whole owned by JAL, operates two Boeing 787-8s. The new LCC aims at starting other routes to Southeast Asian destination and trans-Pacific routes.
The carrier originally planned to start its passenger flight between Narita and Suvarnabhumi Airport from 14 May 2020 but it postponed the start due to the pandemic of COVID-19.
Over 90 percent of scheduled international flights have been stopped, the demand for air cargo is steadily rising and ZIPAIR has decided to launch its scheduled cargo flight at first.
ZIPAIR offers four cargo flights a week as below.
ZG51 Narita 17:20/ Bankok 22:00 Wed/Thur/Fri/Sat
ZG52 Bangkok 23:30/Narita 07:45（+1） Wed/Thur/Fri/Sat
The carrier has not announced a flight schedule for its passenger flights yet. As ZIPAIR has a plan to operate Narita-Incheon flights, it is probable that the flight to and from Korea will take place in daytime and Bangkok service will take place in night. ZIPAIR has announced its plan to start the Korean flight effective from July 1. However, passenger service between Japan and South Korea is still under restriction and business environment is not favorable yet.
The new LCC has also announced its plans to start Narita-Honolulu flights from winter schedule of 2020.
