Vanilla Air (JW/VNL), the re-born AirAsia Japan (JW/WAJ), launched operations on December 20th. It is now controlled 100% by ANA Holdings. AirAsia Japan ceased
operations on October 26th, after ANA Holdings and AirAsia (AK/AXM) dissolved their joint-venture in June, only 10 months after starting service.
From its base at Tokyo/Narita (NRT/RJAA), Vanilla Air began service to Okinawa/Naha (OKA/ROAH) and Taipei/Taoyuan (TPE/RCTP) with a single round-trip to each city. On December 28th, the former will be increased to three round-trips with the arrival of its second Airbus A320-200. Sapporo/New Chitose (CTS/RJCC) will be added on January 29th, to be followed by Seoul/Incheon (ICN/RKSI) on March 1st.
