Bangkok Airways will be flying 3 times per week between BKK and Hiroshima, starting December 2. 2005.

The flight will take 5hr 30 mins.

Sounds good, I've got business over there, any idea on prices??

The news cane 7:25 this morning, no much details in it.

A320 jets with max range of 3600Km will be used.

I thought Hiroshima would be a bit further than that but they know what they are doing.

Nice one..

Apart from a visit to Yokohama about 30 odd plus years ago (alcoholic haze)i have never been to Ippon so could be on the cards.

Whats the damage?

Seems that BKK Air has picked an another niche market where nobody else flies. Like Siam Reap, Koh Samui.

I can't see it going as a bargain.

For the Japanese from the Hiroshima basin, they would have to travel to Osaka, Nagoya or Tokyo for a flight to BKK.

That adds up 100+ US$ x 2. My guess would be - same as Osaka-BKK plus that cost. Convenient to them, maybe, but not cheap.
