Peach Starts Services on Okinawa (Naha) – Taipei (Taoyuan) Route

Peach Aviation Limited announced today that it had started servicing an Okinawa to Taipei route. The Okinawa to Taipei route is Peach’s first international route departing from and arriving at Naha airport, and is the first Japanese airline to operate regular international flight services from Naha airport in approximately 11 years.

Peach Representative Director & CEO Shinichi Inoue said on the opening of Peach’s fifth international route:

“I am truly happy that we have started servicing our first international route departing from and arriving in Okinawa, between Naha and Taipei (Taoyuan). Peach focuses on Okinawa and we are planning to make Okinawa’s Naha airport its second hub after Kansai International Airport and we have started services on 4 routes related to Okinawa soon after the launch of an Okinawa (Naha) to Osaka (Kansai) route on October 18, 2012. As an air travel innovator of the Kansai region, Peach hopes to continue spreading low fare and innovative service from Okinawa, all over Asia. I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to the local authorities and the people of the local areas who have offered their full cooperation to make it possible to open this international route.”
