Qantas to fly double-daily to Japan in 2015

BRISBANE - Qantas will begin direct flights from Brisbane to Tokyo’s Narita Airport from August next year as part of the airline’s expansion of services into Japan. The new direct service will operate four times weekly and complement a new direct daily Sydney-Haneda (Tokyo) service.

Qantas will also fly to Narita on three alternate days from another Australian port, yet to be finalised shortly, providing Qantas double-daily services between Australia and Japan. In total, Qantas will add more than 4,000 seats weekly across 14 return flights between Australia and Japan on a combination of B747 (to Haneda) and A330 (to Narita) services. www.qantas.com (ATI).
