Japan's newest low-cost carrier, AirAsia Japan commenced its domestic flight services to Sapporo and Fukuoka on Aug 1.
The inaugural flight to Fukuoka, JW8541, took off at 7am on Wednesday morning, while the flight to Sappora, JW8521, carried a total of 157 passengers on board.
The airline said that there will be daily flights available to the two Japanese cities.
In celebration, AirAsia Japan is offering one-way tickets for as low as 100 yen (S$2) between Sapporo, Fukuoka, Okinawa and Tokyo.
AirAsia and ANA entered into a joint venture about a year ago. AirAsia Japan CEO, Kazuyuki Iwakata, said the response has been "overwhelming" so far. "I am delighted and emotional to see our first flights take off to Fukuoka and Sapporo," he said.
AirAsia Japan - which is based out of Narita International Airport - currently operates two aircraft, 243 staff in Japan and plies three domestic routes.
Sale fares will be available from August 2-5 for the travel period of August 28 - Oct 27, 2012.
