As the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak (COVID-19, commonly known as the Wuhan virus) shows signs of spreading in Japan, Japanese low-cost carrier Peach Aviation, considering the recent drop in demand for international routes, has decided to suspend some international routes during the February and March peak of the outbreak and to suspend operations on some flights of several routes.

Peach Aviation stated that the plan has been formally submitted to Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism as an application to change its operating plan, and that it will provide refunds or transfers to alternative Peach flights for customers on affected flights from the Republic of China, mainland China, Hong Kong, South Korea, and Thailand.

For information on Peach Aviation flights affected by the COVID-19 outbreak and the options for refunds or flight changes, please refer to the following information.
