"〒286-0048 千葉県成田市公津の杜4丁目11番2号"〕 It is 33% owned by Spring Airlines, a Chinese low-cost carrier, with the remainder held by various Japanese investors. SAJ originally planned to begin operations in autumn 2013, but as of September 2013 plans to begin operations at the end of May 2014, using Terminal 2 of Narita International Airport as its operating base. ==History== Spring Airlines announced in 2011 that it had plans to establish a subsidiary in Japan; it would be the first Chinese airline to do so. Spring was required to find one or more local partners due to Japanese legal restrictions that would limit its investment to a minority stake. The airline received an air operator's certificate on December 17, 2013, having filed in September 2013 with 1.5 billion yen of equity capital, of which Spring Airlines invested 33%. The remainder of the airline's capital was provided by Japanese financial institutions, IT enterprises and trading companies, among others. There were plans to raise a further 4.5 billion yen of capital prior to commencement of operations.〔 Japanese travel agency JTB announced in March 2014 that it would invest in Spring Airlines Japan and enter a partnership with the airline to provide Japan tour packages to Chinese customers. Spring Airlines Japan plans to use primarily Japanese staff, such as retired Japan Airlines pilots. Its head of operations, Minoru Uchida, is a former JAL pilot.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spring Airlines Japan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
