Japan Sky Airlines (often shortened to Japan Sky or Sky Air) is a budget airline in Airport Hero Osaka-KIX and the only budget carrier of that game.

Not to be confused with Japan Skylines.

Description

Japan Sky only appears in the Kansai game. They are a budget airline as they follow the principles of real word budget airlines. They are also the second most common airline at Kansai.

The paint scheme for SAJ is very well done and very inviting. With the Color on the bottom of the Aircraft Yellow, and the Circle on the bottom of the Vertical Stabilizer being Orange. Terminal-wise, They appear at Terminal 2 at Kansai, labeled on the map as LCC (low-cost carrier), right across from the PHC terminal. They are the only airline that occupies this terminal. It is speculated that they are the successor to Star Rocket or White Sky due to the similar paint scheme used in Narita. In Airport Hero New Chitose, the livery is altered into looking something similar to "Peach Air". The Bottom Yellow Color is replaced with a Magenta-ish Color, And the Circle on the bottom of the Vertical Stabilizer is replaced with Purple.

When the flight is offloading or boarding passengers, a boarding truck will roll up to the side for the duration they are boarding. SAJ flights also do not need to push back, as there is enough space on the ramp at T2 to make a 360 degree turn on to the taxiway. This saves a lot of time given the amount of ATC communication needed to clear a flight for pushback.

SAJ flights also may appear as airserve, although this does not happen frequently.

Japan Sky flights always utilize the Airbus A320 on their flights. They go to many Japanese cities, most often Naha and Tokyo, but also Narita, Osaka, Fukuoka, Sendai, and New Chitose. The player needs to keep in mind that, just like an Azix or Star Rocket plane, SAJ will always be on the move. They will land, quickly unload, and re-board, then be back on their way. It is strongly recommended to use runway 06R/24L as this one is less busy.

Japan Sky also makes an appearance in Airport Hero New Chitose, however, they are much rarer as there are other new budget airlines in AH New Chitose.
