Maybe the cargo rates based at the current situation make it worth while to do cargo only flight & also to let flight crew collect some flight hours too.

Even flight quick check on flightradar/flightaware show that they occasionally they have flight to/from KUL on random days they are not operating passenger flight and I able to spot them flew above my home and unmistakable LED anti collision lights and Tsurumaru tail

Indeed... I notice that JL has been continuing their flights to LHR and CGK. Must be worthwhile to fly cargo atm.

With only 26 pax, that’s an improvement over the 2x on ICN inaugural
