  • SilkAir Charters to Okinawa

    Looks like all those TV ads from the Okinawa tourism agency were related to this announcement.

      Is Silkair going to have flights to Okinawa soon ?

      I can't wait to visit Naha soon...

        Yes, 5 hours is quite a long time to be on a narrowbody aircraft.

          I hope this route can become a permanent route rather than charter, with falling Yen and surging interest to visit Japan, OKA will be the best spot to start with if they are looking for expansion.

            I hope so too. I guess we have to wait and see how the yields are. I am assuming the route wasn't that profitable when it last ran in 2014 or else we would have seen charters in 2015 as well.

              There were charters to OKA throughout 2015, just that the intensity did not warrant a press release.
