The suspension is attributed to aircraft rotation adjustments needed for scheduled maintenance, though the route will continue to be served through a codeshare partnership.<\/p>\n<p>Effective from 15 June, JAL&#8217;s summer schedule change maintains capacity on the Narita\u2013Hong Kong sector via <a href=\"https:\/\/app.indexbox.io\/indicators\/symbol\/container-port-traffic-teu-20-foot-equivalent-units-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">cargo codeshare operations<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/app.indexbox.io\/companies\/profile\/685733\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Kalitta Air<\/a>. The company stated that by combining Kalitta Air&#8217;s Narita\u2013Hong Kong service with the Narita\u2013Chicago route, JAL will continue to address strong demand between Asia and North America. The Narita\u2013Chicago flights are also operated by Kalitta Air under a codeshare arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>JAL and Kalitta Air originally signed a codeshare agreement for regular cargo flights from Tokyo Narita to Chicago O&#8217;Hare starting in May 2025. In December of that year, the two airlines agreed to increase the weekly frequency of codeshare cargo flights operated by Kalitta Air on that route to meet demand. Since 10 May 2026, these flights have been conducted on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays using 747-400 freighters.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, JAL noted that Western Global Airlines is operating extra charter flights on the same route on Thursdays and Saturdays, also using a 747-400F. For flight services starting from 16 September 2026, as well as certain routes and periods still under adjustment, the airline indicated that further updates will be provided.<\/p>\n<p>JAL re-entered the all-cargo market in early 2024 after a 13-year hiatus, introducing three converted Boeing 767-300ERs. Kalitta Air has previously conducted codeshare operations with JAL, including in 2019 and 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t1.
