Flight times are 11:00 a.m. departure from Fukuoka (arriving at 12:45 p.m.) and 2:45 p.m. departure from Sendai (arriving at 5:00 p.m.). The carrier\u2019s domestic network will increase to six routes. To accommodate this, the company will cut its Fukuoka\u2013Chubu service from 12 to 6 daily flights starting October 1.
