J-Air Flight Numbers to change to JAL

The JAL Group today confirmed that flights by its domestic subsidiary commuter airline, J-Air, will carry JAL flight numbers from April 1st 2005. Additionally, the commuter airline is to take delivery of two more CRJ-200 aircraft during 2005 to meet the needs of the airline’s expanding route network.

With the opening of Chubu International Airport (Centrair) serving the Nagoya area in February 2005 the JAL Group will move international operations and most domestic flights to the new facility from the present Nagoya Airport at Komaki. J-Air will continue to base its domestic commuter services at Komaki.

The change of J-Air flight numbering to JAL is aimed at improving customer convenience by strengthening the recognition of the JAL brand on domestic commuter flights operated by JAL Group subsidiary carriers.
