Not a single fatal accident, ever

Since its first flight in March 2012, from Osaka Kansai to Sapporo, no Peach flight has had a fatal accident. Peach is the low-cost airline of Japan's ANA group, flying an all-Airbus A320-family fleet from Kansai, Narita, Naha and Sendai, and is overseen by Japan's Civil Aviation Bureau.

Japan's transport safety board has investigated three serious incidents on Peach flights, and no one was hurt in any of them. In April 2014 flight 252 from Ishigaki kept descending on a radar-guided approach to Naha until warnings sounded, around 300 feet above the sea; the captain climbed away and landed safely. The board found the descent began with an unintended input by the captain and that both pilots, relying on the autopilot, were not watching the altitude closely enough; Peach gathered all its pilots to go through the case, required them to call out every change of autopilot mode, and added training for that kind of radar approach.

In December 2016 flight 1028 began an approach at night to a closed runway at Tokyo Haneda until a controller sent it around, and it landed on the runway it had been cleared for. In March 2018 an A320's nose wheel turned sideways after landing at Fukuoka, stopping the aircraft on the runway.

Peach began as A&F Aviation in 2011. Vanilla Air, the ANA group's other low-cost airline, merged into Peach in October 2019 and is not counted here; it had no fatal accident either. ANA's own record is on its own page.
