A spokesperson from JAL has confirmed that the B787 will replace the 777-200ER aircraft to serve the Narita, Tokyo–Delhi route on June 14 and 16 due to ship rotation.
The service will depart Narita at 1225 and arrive in Delhi at 1735, while the return leg will leave at 1935 for a 0725 (+1) touch down in Tokyo. Furthermore, starting July 12, the Dreamliner will replace the 777 entirely on this daily service.
