Excellent news, any idea when they can be booked?.

Fares for the new BNE/NRT and SYD/HND services will be available for sale progressively from later this week, for travel from 1 August 2015 and 31 July 2015 respectively.

Looks like a good week for Qantas, back to profit and introducing new routes.
Well done!

Very nice. I know a few who will be happy about the BNE/NRT route

 

[TomVexille]

Good for QF. Always good to see expansion

 

[Cool Cat Phil]

Will MEL or PER get the second QF Narita service?

My money is on MEL, with possibly JQ operating on alternative days perhaps.

I wonder if JQ will maintain the Service to OOL?

Great to see HND coming to SYD after all which should give QF a bump in sales for business travellers

Am I reading this right... The SYD-HND flight is almost no change to the current NRT times (northbound flight ~ -1 hour to current, southbound ~ +1 hour). Still overnight each direction, still using 2 aircraft, still sitting at TYO all day.

Good news, always wondered about the lack of flights to Japan from BNE.

Scott.

Very good news, Haneda is 5 mins by train from my usual hotel as opposed to 45 from NRT. Glad they are keeping the 747

How is that possible?

Looks promising.
I look forward to that

'Bout time I visited Japan!

Though you might have a wait for the train.The Keikyu line starts service at 0730 weekdays and 0900 on weekdays.The monorail starts at 0900 every day-
Trains and Monorails | Haneda Airport International Terminal

On the weekend if catching a flight back to SYD there will be a wait before checkin if you want to go by train with both services finishing at 1700.
B us services are nowhere as good as those from NRT.With us staying at the Sheraton or Westin just 2 services a day so on the 2 occasions we have arrived at HND it had to be a taxi.

You're confusing the hours the phone lines are open with the rail service...

Trains run from a little after 5AM until midnight or so on both lines.

Sorry I have.Seems though they now start earlier.Was one of the reasons we never used the AA JFK-HND services as the timings meant the public transport was non existent.

There is loads of airport limousine buses going all over the place very frequently. I always use them to shinjuku

Is it that hard to get the bus to Shinjuku Station, then walk/taxi to the hotel from there?
