Vancouver to Tokyo, Japan - $679 to $899 CAD roundtrip [Nonstop Flights]
12
November
Zipair has loaded their schedule for flights operating between November 2024 and March 2025.
Similar to when they first introduced their flights, they are offering nonstop flights between Vancouver and Tokyo, Japan (NRT) for $679 to $899 CAD roundtrip.
The nonstop flights are in and out of Tokyo's Narita Airport (NRT).
Zipair is a subsidiary of Japan Airlines.
UPDATE - Zipair has loaded their April to October schedule.

Things to note about Zipair:
- Zipair aims to offer flights to Japan that are significantly cheaper than their competitors (Air Canada, ANA, and Japan Airlines here in Vancouver).
(Note: Zipair is actually owned by Japan Airlines).
However, Zipair does not include *anything* in their base fares, other than a small piece of hand luggage. Seat selection, actual carry-on, checked bags, and even meals are all extra.
- If you want to quickly compare Zipair against their competitors, add about $220 CAD roundtrip to their cheapest prices. This is the typical cost of their 'Value' or 'Flex Biz' packages which includes things like carry-on or a checked bag and seat selection.
- So as of right now, these flights are really around $679 + $220 roundtrip, or $899 CAD roundtrip. For comparison, the cheapest prices with Air Canada, ANA, and Japan Airlines for a nonstop flight are currently $1470 CAD roundtrip.
Zipair 'Full Flat' Class
Zipair also offers something called 'Full Flat'' class with lie-flat seats that are significantly cheaper than Business Class fares offered by competitors.
But again, this Full Flat class is stripped down to it's bare minimum. Full Flat is essentially Economy with a better seat. That's all you get.
You still need to pay extra for things that would normally be included on a typical Business Class flight (bags, seat selection, and inflight meals).
Priority check-in, baggage handling or boarding, and lounge access are also not included.
Also note that in Full Flat there are no built in screens. You bring your own device and stream entertainment wirelessly.
