China's Spring Airlines plans major expansion of Japan routes

Wang Zhenghua

SHANGHAI/TOKYO -- If all goes according to plan, Chinese low-cost carrier Spring Airlines will be flying customers to Japan from 20 Chinese cities about five years from now, says Chairman Wang Zhenghua.

     The airline flies to only four Japanese destinations from Shanghai at this point. But it aims to add routes between Kansai International Airport in Osaka and four Chinese cities as soon as July, pending approval from Chinese and Japanese aviation regulators, Wang told The Nikkei.
