ANA to Expand Boeing 787-8 Routes

ANA is to introduce the Boeing 787 onto two new international routes, bringing the number of overseas destinations it serves with the Dreamliner to eight.

From this autumn, ANA will begin flying the 787 from Tokyo Narita to Munich and Singapore and will also re-introduce the aircraft on its Narita-Seattle route.

ANA’s 787 already serves routes from Tokyo to Frankfurt, San Jose, Beijing, Taipei and Shanghai.

The increase in 787 flights is part of an international expansion plan that will also see ANA double the number of flights between Narita and Chicago to 14 a week to meet the growth in demand for connections between Asia and North America.

In addition, ANA is introducing a larger sized aircraft onto services between Narita and Shanghai.

These changes will take place from following dates:
Chicago and Munich from 1 September 2013
Seattle from 20 September 2013
Shanghai from 30 September 2013
Singapore from 1 October 2013.
