Spring Japan will launch Tokyo Narita – Dalian route on September 1, 2024, in the direction to China and a day later in the other direction, the airline announced on August 23, 2024. For the time being, the flights are scheduled to operate until October 14, 2024, in the direction from Tokyo.
The flights will be operated six times a week as follows (with the exception of the October 14 and 15, 2024, roundtrip, which will be operated in spite of departing Tokyo on a Monday):
- IJ237 / Tokyo Narita – Dalian / 6:20PM – 8:40PM / Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun
- IJ238 / Dalian – Tokyo Narita / 9:40AM – 1:40PM / Mon, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun
Spring Japan will use the sole passenger aircraft type in its fleet, the 189-seater all-economy class Boeing 737-800, on the route.
The Narita – Dalian route is already served daily by ANA and four times a week each by Air China and China Southern Airlines. Separately, JAL operates daily Tokyo Haneda – Dalian flights. It is not clear whether Spring Japan will continue to operate the flights beyond mid-October.
