To meet the demand for travel between Japan and Guam during the spring, United Airlines will be mounting extra flights during the spring and Golden Week holiday period.

During the spring, United will be adding nine extra flights between Tokyo-Narita and Guam from March 31 to May 5. The flights will use Boeing 737 aircraft with 155 seats, adding 1300 seats each directions available each week.

While the airline currently uses larger Boeing 777 aircraft on the Tokyo-Guam route, it will not use them on the route effective April 1. The 777s will be brought back on two of the three daily flights on the route from August 1 to March 30, 2020.

“We are extremely pleased to offer our customers more opportunities to travel between Tokyo, Narita and Guam during the spring and Golden Week holidays,” said Sam Shinohara, United’s managing director of Asia/Pacific airport operations. “We continue to monitor the Guam market closely and adjust accordingly to the demand for travel in a very timely manner. We are committed to working with local stakeholders and the Guam Visitors Bureau to boost traffic to Guam. Supporting the recovering Japan market has been a top priority for our sales teams.”
