Japan Air Navigation Service (JANS) is a governmental agency in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. JANS is the service provision branch of Civil Aviation Bureau of Japan (JCAB) and provides air navigation services within the Fukuoka Flight Information Region (FIR). Our Organization provides a wide range of air navigation services such as ATS, CNS, AIS, flight procedures design, HF communication, flight inspection, visual aids, and aeronautical satellite operation.
