Unlimited all-you-can-fly passes on a Japanese airline have been launched for just 40,000 Japanese yen (£230).
Passengers under the age of 26 could buy a month-long Star Pass for unlimited travel from domestic airline Star Flyer.
This is not the first time Star Flyer has attempted to provide a cost-saving programme. The airline has in the past provided a monthly flight membership.
Flights between Tokyo and Fukuoka were part of the previous service, with the cost also including lodging. According reports, the membership monthly fee ranged from 200,000 to 400,000 yen (£1,150 to £2,300).
How much will other passengers have to pay?
The Star Pass is also available to older passengers, but they will have to pay a higher price for the ticket — which will then start at 150,000 yen (£862).
How do customers get the pass?
After announcing the campaign on April 14, Star Flyer said it had received 550 applications for the pass, with 90 qualifying winners chosen in a lottery.
One of those chosen was 23-year-old Kaito Kuroiwa. He told Bloomberg he has already taken five round-trip flights with his Star Pass and intends to take another 10 by the middle of June.
He claimed that it has given him the chance to visit friends and explore Kitakyushu.
Which cities can you travel to using the pass?
Although Star Flyer operates five routes across Japan, its international service to Taipei in Taiwan has been suspended at least until October 28.
It is unclear if all the routes are included in the pass.
Why has Star Flyer launched the pass?
It is aimed at workers who would wish to travel back and forth between the two locations.
The airline is expecting that the “promotion will stimulate post-Covid business”, especially amongst younger people who may be unable to finance such journeys.
Shares of the corporation reportedly dropped 11 per cent in value last year.
