▼ Japan Is Giving Away Free Flights To Travellers This Winter
- Category:Other
All Nippon Airways is offering free flights in an effort to encourage tourists to get off the beaten track and explore more of Japan
Travelling is brilliant, but it’s also expensive. Japan seems to understand this though, as it’s trying to help lower that cost a little by offering free domestic flights to European travellers this winter.
All Nippon Airways (ANA) has partnered with the national tourism board to provide passengers with complimentary internal flights. The deal will allow customers two complimentary stopovers with any inbound international flight, so that they can see more of Japan.
Whilst this is a great deal, there are a few conditions that you’ll need to fulfil before you’re eligible. First, you need to be a passenger coming from the UK or Europe, and you will need to pay for your flight into Japan.
You’ll be in standard class, and the deal is also only applicable to journeys between November 24 2025 and January 31 2026, so there’s only a short window to make the most of it.
The goal is to move tourists away from hotspots like Tokyo and Kyoto, and towards some of the nation’s lesser-explored destinations in the countryside and coasts. ANA flies to over 40 Japanese destinations, all of which will be included in the deal, so there’s lots of choice for those looking for a proper adventure.
So what sort of places will you be able to see at no extra cost?
Why not explore the mountains and gorgeous scenery of Tohoku, or if you’re more of a beach person, try the Okinawa Islands with their azure-blue waters and luxury seafront resorts.
ANA says that it hopes this offer will ‘make regional exploration… easier and genuinely affordable’, as well as helping address the overtourism that the country’s major hubs are currently facing.
It added that the campaign is evidence of its dedication to promoting ‘deeper, more sustainable engagement with Japan’s culturally diverse regions’.
You can claim your free flights with ANA here. Whilst your ticket won’t cost anything, you might still have to pay taxes and visa fares – both of which are set to go up for travellers in Japan. You can read more about those increases here.
