About Vanilla Air
Founded on 1 November 2013 and beginning operations on 20 December 2013, Vanilla Air is a Japanese low-cost airline headquartered at Narita International Airport, Narita, Chiba Prefecture, Tokyo. Wholly owned by Nippon Airways, the airline boasts a fleet of 9 Airbus A320-200 aircraft and connects passengers to 5 Japanese destinations, 2 Taiwanese destinations and 1 destination in Hong Kong.
Formerly known as AirAsia Japan, Vanilla Air primarily focuses on its domestic routes with Tokyo's Narita International Airport, Amami's Amami Airport, Okinawa's Naha Airport, Osaka's Kansai International Airport and Sapporo's New Chitose Airport all connected. Vanilla Air flights to Taipei and Kaohsiung in Taiwan are also available, as is a connection to Hong Kong International Airport. Thanks to its regular flights between Tokyo and Amami, the airline is especially popular amongst divers and surfers looking to travel from Japan's capital to its coastal regions.
