This summer, a low-cost Japanese airline will add additional flights to San Francisco to increase its presence in the country.

On June 2, ZIPAIR will begin operating flights between San Francisco International Airport and Narita International Airport in Tokyo. Following operations to Honolulu, Los Angeles, and San José Mineta International Airport in California, the new route will make the airline’s fourth city in the United States.

“Through our relationship with SFO, we are confident this service will provide a valuable link for commercial and cultural exchange for our mutual customers,” ZIPAIR President Shingo Nishida said in a statement.

The new route will run between the U.S. and Japan five times per week on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The price for one-way travel will be $91.

2018 saw the founding of ZIPAIR, a division of Japan Airlines. (which is known for having some of the most luxurious economy seats). The airline now offers flights to Bangkok, Seoul, Honolulu, Singapore, Los Angeles, and San José as well as six more overseas destinations.

The airline flies a fleet of Boeing 787 8 Dreamliners and it provides free Wi-Fi for all passengers and free carry-on baggage weighing up to 7 kilograms (15.4 pounds). However, ZIPAIR charges for other services, such as ordering meals from a smartphone or tablet.

Japan will remove all COVID-19-related border restrictions on May 8, removing the requirements for vaccination and testing. According to the Japan National Tourism Organization, all visitors to the nation must currently provide documentation of three COVID-19 vaccinations or a negative test result obtained within 72 hours before departure.

Following a series of rule modifications, the nation first only allowed visitors on guided tours before reopening to independent travelers in the fall of 2022.
