Toki Air announced it will add Niigata – Sapporo Okadama operations on Wednesdays in addition to the current four days a week starting from April 3, 2024. With that, the airline will offer ten weekly rotations (two on each day of operation) a week.
The flights will operate as follows:
- BV101 / Niigata – Sapporo Okadama / 10:10AM – 11:45AM / Mon, Wed*, Fri, Sat, Sun
- BV102 / Sapporo Okadama – Niigata / 12:15PM – 2:00PM / Mon, Wed*, Fri, Sat, Sun
- BV103 / Niigata – Sapporo Okadama / 2:30PM – 4:05PM / Mon, Wed*, Fri, Sat, Sun
- BV104 / Sapporo Okadama – Niigata / 4:35PM – 6:20PM / Mon, Wed*, Fri, Sat, Sun
* Frequency to be added from April 3, 2024.
The flights will be operated by the sole aircraft type in Toki Air’s fleet, the ATR 72 with 72 seats.
Toki Air launched operations on January 31, 2024, and has been operating eight weekly flights between Niigata and Sapporo since. While the airline appeared to have plans to increase that to daily by now, those plans have not materialized and, instead, the airline is going for the modest addition of Wednesday rotations. Going forward, Toki Air also plans to launch flights from Niigata to Sendai, Nagoya, and Kobe among other destinations.
