| - | FujiAir was established in November 2015 and commenced operations soon after.

| |
| - | == History ==
| |
| - | FujiAir began slowly with a single Boeing 737-700. However, it later leased two more 737-700s, and a single 737-800 which acted as the company's flagship. It then launched its FujiExpress and FujiClipper operations, and 787s were ordered for international services.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == Destinations ==
| |
| - |
| |
| - | FujiAir has an extensive network of regional and international flights. FujiAir operates the longest 737-700 service anywhere in the world: 3713 miles from Tokyo (HND) to Kauai Island, US (LIH).
| |
| - |
| |
| - | FujiAir has three hubs: Tokyo Haneda, Hiroshima and Sendai. FujiAir serves 88 destinations.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | FujiAir was involved in some controversy with the United Nations after announcing service to North Korea. The services continue, however, as FujiAir flies nonstop daily from Pyongyang (FNJ) to Sendai (SDJ) and Hiroshima (HIJ), and has upgraded its Tokyo (HND) service to twice daily. Many North Koreans are choosing FujiAir because it offers better connections across Asia and the world than Air Koryo, NK's national carrier.

| - | == Accidents ==
| |
| - | FujiAir has not been involved in any hull-loss accidents, although there have been several minor incidents:
| |
| - | On January 2, 2018, ATR72-500 JA615J's landing gear collapsed during taxi out of Sendai (SDJ) after landing, operating domestic flight FJ2598 from Hakodate (HKD). There were no injuries. The airplane was repaired and returned to service.
| |
| - | On April 30, 2019, two FujiAir aircraft, Boeing 787-9 JA549K operating FJ3848 from Tel Aviv (TLV) to Tokyo Haneda (HND) with 219 people aboard, and Boeing 737-700 JA647M operating flight FJ3395 from Hiroshima (HIJ) to Anchorage (ANC) with 97 people aboard, were involved in a near-miss collision. FJ3395 was allowed to climb to 22,000 feet, however it mistakenly understood "32,000 feet". A lack of designated air corridors around Hiroshima contributed to the near-disaster, as the descending 787 and the ascending 737 were routed in the same corridor. The Japanese 787 crew complained that the TCAS had not sounded soon enough, and that the display was unclear, resulting in major changes to TCAS systems.
