Peach
A Japanese low-cost airline based in Osaka, operating Airbus A320 flights across domestic Japan and selected East Asian markets.
About Peach
Peach is a Japanese low-cost carrier founded in 2011 and launched scheduled services in 2012. It operates under the MM airline code and is part of ANA Holdings, while maintaining a distinct budget-airline identity, fare structure and operating model. Peach was among the first Japan-based carriers developed specifically around the modern low-cost model, with optional extras sold separately from the basic ticket price.
Osaka is Peach’s primary hub and the centre of its network. The airline operates 16 routes serving 9 destinations across 4 countries. Domestic services include cities such as Fukuoka, Kagoshima, Nagasaki, Okinawa and Sapporo, while its international network reaches Hong Kong, Seoul and Taipei. Fukuoka and Sapporo are also important departure points, alongside Hong Kong and Seoul.
The airline’s recorded fleet is built around the Airbus A320 family, a narrow-body aircraft suited to domestic and short-haul regional flying. Peach generally uses a single economy-class cabin rather than separate business and economy sections. Its standard product is deliberately streamlined: the lowest fares cover transportation and a basic seat, while checked baggage, advance seat selection, meals and other options may require additional payment.
Peach does not belong to Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld, despite its ownership connection to ANA Holdings. Travellers should not assume that ANA Mileage Club benefits, through-checking or alliance privileges apply automatically to Peach bookings. The airline does not offer a conventional mileage-based frequent-flyer programme comparable with those of full-service carriers, so passengers should assess fares primarily on their included features and total trip cost.
Peach’s main strength is its focused network of useful leisure and regional routes from Osaka and other Japanese cities, often giving travellers a lower-cost alternative to full-service airlines. The trade-off is a more restrictive, fee-based experience: baggage, seat choice and booking changes can materially increase the final price. Connections may also require passengers to collect baggage and complete check-in again, so generous transfer time is advisable.
Good to know
Flying with Peach — what to expect
Check Fare Inclusions
Peach’s lowest fares are generally unbundled. Compare the total after adding checked baggage, seat selection and any flexibility you need.
Cabin Baggage Limits
Carry-on rules are enforced by item count, dimensions and combined weight. Check the current allowance for your booking before arriving at the airport.
Single Economy Cabin
Peach operates a streamlined economy-only product on its Airbus A320 aircraft. Food, drinks and preferred seats may cost extra rather than being included.
Allow Connection Time
Peach itineraries may not provide the protected connections or through-checked baggage associated with full-service network airlines. Leave ample time if transferring between separate bookings.
Airport Terminal Check
Low-cost operations may use terminals or check-in areas different from those used by full-service airlines. Confirm the terminal and check-in deadline for each airport in advance.
Changes Can Cost More
The cheapest fare categories may have limited change or refund flexibility. Read the conditions carefully before booking if your plans are uncertain.
