With the spread of the new coronavirus infection, postal items such as masks for China have been delayed significantly, so Japan Post has decided to charter its own freighter and carry postal items that have been stuck. I understood that After the privatization of the postal service, it is the first time that international mail has been transported by charter aircraft.
Japan Post usually uses a commercial airliner to deliver international mail. However, the spread of the new coronavirus has resulted in a surge in mail items such as masks, and a series of cancellations on passenger aircraft to China earlier this month, resulting in a significant delay in delivery to China.
Therefore, according to the parties concerned, Japan Post has decided to charter its own freighters at its own expense and carry a postal service. We have secured multiple flights since 15th of this month, and we hope that this will help to reduce delays.
After the privatization of the postal service in 2007, it is the first time that international mail has been transported by charter aircraft. However, logistics disruption is continuing in China, so it is expected that delays in delivery in China will continue for the time being.
