• ANA became the first Japanese carrier to offer cargo space booking through CargoWise, a leading global air cargo booking platform.
• This initiative supports ANA's efforts to enhance sales channels and streamline the booking process for improved customer service.
• The service initially launched in partnership with DHL Global Forwarding, with plans to onboard additional freight forwarders in the future.

  TOKYO, Apr.22 , 2025 - All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan's largest 5-Star airline for 12 consecutive years, has begun offering cargo space booking through WiseTech Global's CargoWise platform, starting April 11, 2025. This integration marks the first time a Japanese airline has enabled bookings via CargoWise, expanding ANA's global sales reach.

  Through this digital connection, freight forwarders can now search, compare fares, book, and confirm bookings for ANA flights online 24/7. As demand grows for digital booking solutions, this move is expected to significantly enhance both customer convenience and operational efficiency. At launch, the service is available to DHL Global Forwarding, with plans to expand access to additional forwarders in the future.

  ANA remains committed to strengthening its sales channels and advancing the digitalization of its cargo booking process.

  Kenichi Wakiya, Executive Vice President, Cargo Marketing & Services of ANA and President & CEO of ANA Cargo:

   "ANA serves the world with key routes and we are focused on providing a cargo system that is easy and efficient for forwarders to conduct business on our network utilizing the systems they already use. Our integration with CargoWise enables seamless data transmission, creating an efficient and simplified booking experience for our major customers."

  Scott McCorquodale, Head of Airline Connectivity, WiseTech Global:

  "Japan is the world's fourth largest economy and is one of the world's largest producers of high technology manufactured goods and consumer products.  These sectors create a high demand for inbound and outbound air cargo, and we're delighted to partner with ANA cargo to help facilitate this demand. ANA Cargo plays an important role in facilitating trade between Japan and the rest of the world, so the ability for our freight forwarders to access real-time flight availability and pricing information and complete their bookings on ANA Cargo, all without leaving CargoWise, will drive greater efficiency and accuracy across the supply chain."

   Max Sauberschwarz, Head of Global Air Freight at DHL Global Forwarding:

  "At DHL we are committed to delivering excellence in a digital world. The direct data exchange means we can plan, book and manage shipments directly with ANA Cargo from within CargoWise, making our services more convenient and efficient for our customers."

  ANA remains committed to advancing the digitization of air cargo services to better meet the evolving needs of our valued customers.
