All-white Jetstar Japan aircraft draw attention at Narita Int'l Airport
NARITA, Chiba -- Jetstar Japan Co.'s new, almost all-white aircraft have drawn attention after arriving at Narita International Airport, where the low
Narita International Airport in Chiba, Japan, has been buzzing with attention for Jetstar Japan's new fleet of nearly all-white aircraft. The low-cost carrier, established in 2011 with investments from Japan Airlines and Qantas Group, announced a brand overhaul in February, leading to the current blank slate livery. The aircraft, 232-seat Airbus A321LRs, currently operate without logos on popular domestic and international routes.
Two of these unique white-painted planes arrived at Narita in late October, with a second following on October 31. The unusual paint scheme is seen as a temporary measure until the new brand name and livery are finalized, expected around early 2027. Currently, some parts of the aircraft retain the previous orange color due to the unfinished livery change.
Jetstar Japan's head of engineering, Yasuyuki Ogiwara, expressed hope that the new aircraft design will follow a white color scheme.
