(MVA) — Japan Airlines will bring more charter flights from Osaka to the CNMI during Golden Week.
JAL’s original commitment of three flights has been doubled to six.
JAL Osaka has indicated that eight of Japan’s major wholesalers are aggressively supporting the charter program and therefore JAL has decided to increase the number of Osaka-Saipan charters to six.  
These six charters from Osaka in April supplement the nine JAL charters from Osaka that JAL has already scheduled for March.
The Golden Week JAL charters will be operated using a 232-seat Boeing 767.
The plane consists of 202 economy class seats and 30 “Raku Raku” seats.
The planned flight schedule for the six charter flights is April 27-30, April 28-May 2, April 29-May 3, April 30-May 4, May 1 -5 and May 2-6.
“This is very encouraging news for the CNMI,” said MVA Managing Director Perry Tenorio. “Japan continues to deliver the highest number of tourists to the CNMI and having these additional charters allows more Japanese visitors to explore our beautiful islands. We applaud JAL for their continued commitment to our islands with their charter service.”
