Japanese domestic airline flight capacity increases

Overview

In early October 2026, Japanese airlines Starflyer and Skymark Airlines announced additional flight schedules to meet passenger demand. Starflyer scheduled extra services between Tokyo/Haneda and Fukuoka, while Skymark added 12 new services from Haneda to Sapporo, Kagoshima, and Naha.

By late October, Skymark expanded its capacity further, announcing 28 additional flights for October and November 2026 on routes connecting Haneda to Sapporo, Fukuoka, Kagoshima, and Naha. Japan Transocean Air (JTA) also scheduled four charter flights between Matsumoto and Okinawa/Naha for early November. During this period, Skymark implemented special ticket policies for flights involving Miyako and Okinawa/Naha to mitigate the expected impact of Typhoon No. 30.
