Two Japanese Airlines Report Passenger Data Breach as Pakistan Reopens Airspace to Taiwanese Carriers

Japan Airlines and Japan Transocean Air reported unauthorized access to reservation data held by their provider, Amadeus IT Group. About 92,000 customers may be affected, and information for roughly 2,000 could also include passport numbers, contact details and nationality; credit card numbers and passwords were not compromised. Separately, Pakistan’s Civil Aviation Authority restored China Airlines’ and EVA Air’s permission to use Pakistani airspace from October 28, 2026, to March 27, 2027, reversing a restriction announced in connection with Beijing’s “One China” policy.
