Air Premia will launch a new route to Sapporo, Japan's representative winter tourist city.
Air Premia said on the 14th that starting Dec. 2 it will operate the Incheon–Sapporo route four times a week. It is Air Premia's second Japan route after the Incheon–Narita route.
The Incheon–Sapporo route will operate four times a week on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, using a B787-9 aircraft. It will depart Incheon International Airport at 9:40 a.m. and arrive at New Chitose Airport at 12:20 p.m. From Sapporo, it will depart at 1:45 p.m. and arrive in Incheon at 5:15 p.m.
Tickets for the Incheon–Sapporo route will go on sale on the Air Premia website and mobile app starting at 10 a.m. that day. A discount promotion to mark the new Sapporo launch is scheduled to begin on the 21st.
An Air Premia official said, "We expect this new launch to expand options for customers planning winter trips."
