China Eastern delays Shanghai-Sendai route launch

9/22/2012 9:09:14 AM

China Eastern Airlines will delay the launch of a new route between Shanghai and Sendai because of insufficient travel demand amid growing tension between China and Japan over a group of disputed islands, reported Dow Jones Newswires.

The country's second-largest airline by capacity had planned to launch four weekly services between China's financial capital and the Japanese city on October 18, said the spokesman, who declined to be named.

Other routes to Japan are operating as per normal, he said, without specifying a new timeframe for the launch of the Shanghai-Sendai route.

Meanwhile, Japan Airlines will temporarily reduce the frequency of daily round-trip flights between some major cities in Japan and China due to an increase in cancellations after the anti-Japanese protests in China.

JAL said that it will reduce the daily flights between Tokyo (Narita) and Beijing to one from two flights and those between Tokyo (Narita) and Shanghai (Pudong) to two from three while reducing the daily flights between Osaka (Kansai) and Shanghai (Pudong) to one from two, effective October 10-27.
