TOKYO-<\/strong> AirJapan (NQ)<\/a> increases its flights between Singapore (SIN) and Tokyo Narita (NRT) to daily service starting November 2025, boosting capacity by 40%. This expansion contrasts with ZIPAIR (ZG), which reduces its SIN-NRT route to five weekly flights from January to March 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both low-cost carriers target the competitive Singapore-Tokyo market but offer different products: AirJapan focuses on all economy affordability, while ZIPAIR (ZG)<\/a> provides flat-bed business seats. Travelers gain more options amid rising route capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AirJapan Daily Singapore Flights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AirJapan (NQ), a budget subsidiary of All Nippon Airways, launches daily flights from Singapore (SIN) to Tokyo Narita (NRT) on November 21, 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The airline started the route in April 2024 and added a third Boeing 787-8 aircraft to support the increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current 5 weekly operations skip Tuesdays and Wednesdays from Tokyo (NRT) and Wednesdays and Thursdays from Singapore (SIN)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The schedule features overnight departures from SIN at 00:55, arriving NRT at 08:40, and evening flights from NRT at 17:05, arriving SIN at 23:45.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From November 21, 2025, daily service fills these gaps with identical timings. The overnight leg from Singapore challenges economy passengers, but the return flight offers a convenient pre-midnight arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZIPAIR (ZG), Japan Airlines’ low-cost arm, cuts Singapore (SIN) to Tokyo Narita (NRT)<\/a> flights to five weekly from January 7 to March 11, 2026. The airline launched the route in 2021 as the first LCC nonstop option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daily service resumes March 12, 2026, through the winter season ends on March 28. ZIPAIR has operated daily since March 2023, but now focuses on yields elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
