According to Japan's Ministry of Transport the aircraft landed with 3400 lbs of fuel remaining where regulations required 4200 lbs of minimum fuel remaining. The occurrence was rated a serious incident and is being investigated.
On Jul 18th 2023 Japan's TSB announced, they have opened an investigation into the occurrence stating: "although the aircraft attempted to land at Hakodate Airport twice, it was unable to land due to poor visibility and was diverted to New Chitose Airport. Due to low fuel remaining near the above location, the crew requested priority for air traffic control and landed at the airport at 09:45."
