According to Chubu Airport, the total number of international flight reservations between April 29 and May 6, including both departures and arrivals, stands at around 100,000. That is about 90% of the level recorded during last year’s Golden Week holidays.

The airport said worsening Japan-China relations have weighed on demand, with all routes to Beijing and Dalian currently suspended. A reduction in direct flights to China has also contributed to the decline.

The peak for returning travelers is expected on May 6.
