About

J-Air is a Japanese scheduled airline. The airline is the regional subsidiary of Japan's national carrier, Japan Airlines (JAL). J-Air is based out of Osaka International Airport but also flies regularly out of New Chitose Airport, Sapporo. As a regional airline, J-Air flies domestic flights within Japan and no international flights. Because of this, it's route network in Japan is big. It flies to more than 25 destinations within the country and — along with its reliability from being Japan Airline's subsidiary — is one of the top choices for domestic flights within Japan.

The airline launched as the regional subsidiary of Japan Airlines in 1996. It flew its first flights from Hiroshima, focussing on the on routes that were less in-demand than JAL Japan were flying at the time. Over the years, J-Air grew its route network, eventually taking Osaka International as its main hub and establishing a secondary hub at New Chitose Airport.

Although J-Air still focuses on the smaller-demand routes in Japan and a few of the big cites are instead flown to by its parent airline, the airline is still one of the most well-connected airlines within the country, with one of the largest route networks.
