Fuji Dream E170 at Okadama Airport
Fuji Dream Airlines operates three seasonal routes to Sapporo Okadama Airport.

On May 22, 2024, Fuji Dream Airlines announced it will increase the frequency of its seasonal Nagoya Komaki – Sapporo Okadama route from the current two to three daily roundtrips from July 1, 2024. The extra rotation will released for sale from May 28, 2024.

The three daily flights from Nagoya will operate until the end of the summer schedule (October 26, 2024) as follows:

  • JH391 / Nagoya Komaki – Sapporo Okadama / 7:20AM – 9:00AM
  • JH395* / Nagoya Komaki – Sapporo Okadama / 11:55AM – 1:35PM
  • JH397 / Nagoya Komaki – Sapporo Okadama / 4:20PM – 6:00PM

In the other direction, the flights will operate as follows:

  • JH392 / Sapporo Okadama – Nagoya Komaki / 9:40AM – 11:30AM
  • JH396* / Sapporo Okadama – Nagoya Komaki / 2:20PM – 4:10PM
  • JH398 / Sapporo Okadama – Nagoya Komaki / 6:30PM – 8:20PM

* Frequency to be added from July 1, 2024.

Fuji Dream Airlines operates most of its flights using Embraer E175 aircraft with 84 seats. It also has two E170s with 76 seats (until recently it had three).

No other airline connects Sapporo Okadama with Nagoya Komaki. That said, there are over a dozen daily year-round flights between the larger Sapporo New Chitose and Nagoya Chubu airports operated by airlines including ANA, JAL, Air Do, Skymark, and Peach.

In addition to Nagoya Komaki, Fuji Dream Airlines offers daily Sapporo Okadama – Matumoto and Shizuoka flights as well. Like the Nagoya route, both of these routes only operate in during the summer schedule due to Okadama Airport’s short runway and related winter performance limitations.
