Jetstar Japan unveiled its state-of-the-art Airbus A321LR aircraft at Narita Airport on June 12.
The A321LR is a medium- to long-range aircraft with a range of approximately 3,000 to 5,500 kilometers while achieving low fuel consumption by installing a new engine and additional fuel tanks.
The exterior features a new design that incorporates the corporate color orange rising up from the lower fuselage to the tail, and the Jetstar logo (Jet☆) on the sharklet at the tip of the main wings.

The A321LR will operate up to six flights per day on the Narita-Shin-Chitose (Sapporo) and Narita-Fukuoka routes starting July 1, with the second aircraft scheduled to be introduced within the year and the third in 2023.
