Press Release
Japan Airlines to Increase Domestic Network Schedule between July 1-16
During the month of June, the carrier has seen a slight recovery in future travel demand based on two key factors; the state of emergency being lifted in the country and the government of Japan announcing plans to lift domestic travel restrictions on June 19. According to a recent forecast for the carrier, a 20% recovery in demand is seen during the month of June and a 40% recovery is expected during the first half of July on the domestic network.
As a result, the JAL Group today announced an updated network plan between July 1 and July 16, confirming that over 50% of the carrier`s scheduled flights will be operated during the specified period. In terms of cargo-only flights, JAL will continue to operate flights by utilizing passenger aircraft on select routes within Japan.
The JAL Group has continued to implement key measures against COVID-19 to provide our customers with a safe and secure travel experience. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience but would like to ask for our customer`s understanding during this unprecedented time.
