Japan's pioneering low-cost carrier connecting Asia.
Founded
2011
Headquarters
Osaka, Japan
Peach Aviation is Japan's first low-cost carrier (LCC), launched in 2012 and headquartered at Kansai International Airport in Osaka. The airline operates domestic routes across Japan as well as international routes to destinations throughout East and Southeast Asia, positioning itself as an affordable travel option for leisure and budget-conscious travelers.
Peach was established as a joint venture with ANA Holdings and originally Hong Kong-based First Eastern Investment Group. ANA later increased its stake and in 2019 completed a full merger with Vanilla Air, another ANA-affiliated LCC, consolidating operations under the Peach brand. The airline operates a fleet of Airbus A320-family aircraft and is known for its distinctive pink branding and youth-oriented marketing.
As part of the ANA Group, Peach benefits from the backing of one of Japan's largest aviation conglomerates while maintaining its independent low-cost identity. The airline has grown steadily since its founding and continues to expand its network across the Asia-Pacific region.
Hubs & network
Peach Aviation's primary hub is Kansai International Airport (KIX) in Osaka, with secondary bases at New Chitose Airport (CTS) in Sapporo and Naha Airport (OKA) in Okinawa.
Fleet
Peach Aviation operates an all-Airbus fleet composed of A320 and A320neo family aircraft.
