- In response to increased demand, ANA will employ Boeing 767 freighter to connect Hangzhou and Tokyo in June.
TOKYO, June 8, 2021 - All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan's largest and 5-Star airline for eight consecutive years, will operate cargo freighters connecting Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport (HGH) and Tokyo Narita International Airport (NRT) for two round trip flights in June. A Boeing 767 freighter with maximum load capacity at roughly 50 tons has been selected for the route.
ANA is operating the freighters in response to increased demand for transportation of cargo with growth of cross-border e-commerce, and in addition aims to further support the global supply chain network by responding to a broad range of demand for transporting cargo such as electronic devices to North America and Europe.
"ANA places the same emphasis on superior customer service for our cargo flights that we do on flights transporting passengers. We understand that air transportation represents a vital link in the global supply chain, and it is encouraging to watch our network grow as the economy begins to recover," said Toshiaki Toyama, Executive Vice President of ANA and President of ANA Cargo Inc. "Hangzhou represents a vital industrial hub, and we are excited to offer a direct link between the city and the Japanese market."
