Japan Airlines McDonnell Douglas MD-90-30 landing at Yamagata Airport

In place of Sendai Airport, which was rendered unusable due to damage caused by the tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake, airports in neighboring prefectures played an important role as the gateway to the skies of Tohoku.

One of these was Yamagata Airport in Higashine City, Yamagata Prefecture Japan, which was used as a relief base for police, fire departments, and the US military in place of the damaged Sendai Airport, and operated special flights to replace public transportation, including the Tohoku Shinkansen, which had been rendered inoperable.

J-Air, a member of the Japan Airlines Group, flew special flights to Tohoku immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake, working hard to secure transportation to transport people who were unable to escape, and also resumed operations as a special flight until the end of April with a McDonnell Douglas MD-90-30 that had once been withdrawn from Yamagata Airport prior to its retirement.

JA8063 continues to fly as JAS Japan Air System’s “Rainbow Color No. 3” and has been repainted in Sunark livery since merging with Japan Airlines.
