The New Kansai International Airport Company plans to share information on its airport eco-activities with member airport operators.

New LCC Terminal Building (T3) Aiming to become a major LCC hub in Asia by creating a LCC terminal building with the

highest global standards

The Kansai International Airport is implementing the expansion of its LCC terminal buildings by constructing a new LCC terminal building, the Terminal 3 Building (T3).

Kansai International Airport is Japan’s largest hub for incoming and outgoing LCC flights, with 9 airlines operating 140 international flights per week and 2 airlines conducting 28 flights daily. Also, the Terminal 2 Building (T2), which was opened for use on October 28, 2012, boasts a high level of patronage. To keep operational costs low, there are no luxuries, such as lounges. However, the terminal is winning the praise of customers for its simple and clean concept, which is based on the main premise of security and safety.

As demand grows for LCC flights, the Kansai International Airport expects the capacity of T2 to reach full capacity in the near future. Consequently, to facilitate the growth of the airport as a hub for LCC flight operators and to capture demand from travelers from Asia, an area of pronounced growth, the airport has decided to construct T3. The airport plans to come together and hone the concept used for its popular T2 and leverage knowhow cultivated thus far from its airport operations, to create an LCC terminal building that boasts the world’s highest standards.

Cathay Pacific Airways Adding New Flights between Osaka Hong Kong for a Total of Five Flights Daily

Cathay Pacific Airways plans to add a new flight to the four flights it currently operates between Kansai International Airport (KIX) and Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), for a total of five daily flights starting from February 16, 2014. The airline plans to introduce a new flight, operating a Boeing 747-400, with a total seating capacity of 359 passengers. The airline aims to provide more choices and better convenience for customers in both Osaka and Hong Kong by adding this new flight and thereby strengthen its stance to flexibly and accurately deal with diverse passenger needs. The new flight, CX561, is scheduled to depart KIX at 7:20 pm and arrive in HKG at 10:40 pm. The return flight, CX562, is scheduled to depart HKG at 7:50 am and arrive in KIX at 12:15 pm. The new daily flight will enable travelers from Hong Kong to stay longer in Osaka while the flight from KIX extends the reach of the Cathay Pacific Group’s global network by offering a smoother transfer to locations further out from Hong Kong. This new flight will also provide an abundance of travel options and improve convenience. Nick Hays, Marketing & Sales Manager for Cathay Pacific Airways in Japan, is pleased with the addition of this new flight connecting KIX and HKG. This new flight reflects the confidence in expectations for demand, which is already brisk, from passengers in Osaka and Hong Kong, and also indicates the determination of the company’s endeavors in the Kansai area. Hays believes the five daily flights between KIX and HKG will offer travelers a wider range of flight options and an improvement in convenience, and will welcome passengers at both ends. Cathay Pacific Airways chartered its first flight to Osaka on April 1, 1960. It was the first airline to operate regular international flights to and from Osaka-Itami International Airport. At present, the airline operates four flights daily between KIX and HKG, including a flight that stops off in Taipei, Taiwan.
