Dragonair to operate Charter Service between Hong Kong and Sendai, Japan

Dragonair is to operate a charter service between Hong Kong and Sendai in Japan every Sunday between July 25 and August 29.

The flights have been chartered as part of two-city package tours organised by four Hong Kong travel agencies. Travellers will be able to fly to Sendai and return from Tokyo, or vice versa.

"Sendai is famous for its summer festivals as well as for hot springs, while Tokyo is an unforgettable cultural experience," said Andy Tung, Chief Operating Officer. "Summer is a great time to visit Japan, especially now that visas are not required for Hong Kong travellers holding SAR or BNO passports."

Full details of the packages are available from the four travel agencies chartering the flights: Wing On Travel, Sunflower, Hong Thai, or Package Tour.

Dragonair launched services to Tokyo on April 2 this year, and flies there seven times a week.
