Air Macau said Sunday that it plans to gradually increase the frequency of flights to and from Japan, South Korea and parts of Southeast Asia, starting from 26 March.
The enhanced scheduling will see the number of flights to and from Tokyo increased from one flight per week to four (each way), and to and from Osaka from two flights each week to three. From 14 April, Osaka flights will further increase to four each week return, taking the total number of weekly return flights to Japan to eight.
Also from 26 March, the number of flights to and from Seoul will be increased from two each way to four each way, while from 28 March a new service will start to Bangkok Don Mueang Airport twice weekly, rising to daily from 15 May.
A new Singapore service will operate three times a week from 23 March, increasing to four times a week from 10 April, while a Vietnam service will operate four times a week, with two flights each to and from Hanoi and Da Nang.
As for Taiwan, on the basis of maintaining the daily frequency of the Taipei route, the Kaohsiung route will be increased from the current four flights per week to one flight per day from 26 March. This will take the total number of weekly flights to and from Taiwan to 14.
“In the next phase, Air Macau will further increase the number of flights to Tokyo, Osaka and Seoul to daily and Bangkok to twice daily depending on the destination airport,” Air Macau said in a statement.
“In accordance with market demand, Air Macau is also expected to increase the number of flights to Singapore, Danang and Hanoi to twice a day, and to Taipei and Kaohsiung to 10 flights per week.”

“The weekly growth rate is around 20%,” it said. “With the further restoration of more international destinations in the next phase, the number of international bookings will continue to grow steadily.”
