DALLAS – The subsidiary carrier of ANA Holdings, AirJapan, has unveiled the fresh products and services that they will provide on inaugural flights. The airline that was launched last year will serve medium to long-haul destinations.
The startup airline will operate the Boeing 787 Dreamliner to serve its customers. It will have 324 economy class seats with an ample 32-inch seat pitch delivering ample leg and recline space, which is competitive to the industriousness standard presented by other carriers.
The company unveiled the products and services, including aircraft seats, employees' uniforms, boarding music, an inflight menu, and a responsive website.
The airline is to offer affordable and comfortable cabin space under the brand concept of "Fly Thoughtful." Economy class seats are to made of superior Japanese faux leather, famous for its lightweight, durable, and soft texture. The cabin interior and seats are designed by Acumen Design Associates and manufactured by Safran.
The new Japanese carrier also revealed a borderless uniform that promotes gender-neutral equality and is made from sustainable plant-derived fabrics.
AirJapan travelers will be treated to the sounds of "Ai" music during their flight, which features traditional Japanese shakuhachi and koto instruments and has been produced in collaboration with the Tokyo University of the Arts.
The new startup has launched a website to present its concept and new services to a broader audience, including access to official social media channels. The site will offer up-to-date announcements on flight schedules, routes, and other pertinent details and the choice to make flight reservations once ticket sales begin.
It is with noting that AirJapan's foundation date was actually June 29, 1990, after ex-pat JAL pilots were laid off earlier that same year. 32 years later, on March 8, 2022, the "AirJapan brand" was released boating a future medium-to-long-haul route reach.
However, AirJapan is the arm for ex-pat pilots and technically already flies a lot of flights for ANA, similar to what JALways used to do.
