For those who feel that flying to Japan is too costly, well, here's some good news!

Travel + Leisure reported:
Checking Japan off your bucket list could soon be cheaper than ever: The country's flag carrier just announced it's launching a new budget airline.  
Japan Airlines (JAL)'s new low-cost carrier will fly passengers to and from Japan and other destinations across Asia, Europe, and the Americas starting in the summer of 2020.  
While details like the airline's name, its exact destinations, and ticket prices have yet to be announced, JAL representatives said flights will operate from Narita International Airport and will operate on two Boeing 787-8 aircrafts to start. 
Though the airline holds a minority stake in Jetstar Japan, which is known for offering short-distance flights on a budget, this will be the airline’s first time launching its own budget carrier. 
Low-cost carriers only currently account for about 10 percent of passenger flights in Japan, according to the Japan Times, with full-service carriers like JAL and All Nippon Airways (ANA) dominating the airfield.
