Main Initiatives:
- ■ Airport Services
- We are continuously working to improve the convenience of digital services such as boarding procedures and timely information provision on customers' mobile devices. By combining personnel services with digital services, we provide all customers with a smoother journey. In June 2024, we received the award for 'World’s Best Airport Services', awarded to the airline with the highest evaluation in all aspects of airport services at SKYTRAX's 'World Airline Awards'.
- Starting from the summer schedule of 2024, the number of flights departing from the international terminal at Haneda Airport's Terminal 2 has expanded to 26. In addition to using the spacious international departure lounge, the convenience of transferring to domestic flights with ANA that also operate from Terminal 2 has improved.
- From December 2024, the domestic ANA SUITE CHECK-IN and ANA PREMIUM CHECK-IN at Haneda Airport will be gradually renewed. By increasing the number of counters and introducing state-of-the-art security inspection machines, wait times will be reduced, allowing for smoother passage through the security check area than ever before.
- ■ In-flight Services
- To meet the diverse needs of our customers, efforts are being made in human resource development of cabin crew focused on exhibiting flexibility, creativity, and cultivating a supportive mindset, so that warm services unique to Japan can be provided to each individual.
- In addition to renowned chefs and professional sommeliers from Japan and abroad, we are specially producing in-flight meals and beverages through "THE CONNOISSEURS." Also, by utilizing the "In-flight Meal Pre-Reservation Service," you can ensure your desired menu, including collaboration menus of Japanese and Western cuisine, is available if you reserve it up to 24 hours before departure. (Excluding some classes and services)
- The international in-flight internet service (Service Name: ANA Wi-Fi Service) has been expanded, allowing customers in business class to use it for free. Passengers in premium economy and economy class can also use the ANA Wi-Fi Service for text communication free of charge.
- Note: Depending on the aircraft, ANA Wi-Fi Service may not be available. Please check the ANA website for details.
- ■ Collaboration between ground services and in-flight services
- To provide consistent services tailored to each customer both on the ground and in the air, a system for managing customer information across departments is being developed.
- ■New Routes
- Starting from the 2024 winter schedule, three new routes to Europe will be launched. The expanded route network will further enhance global travel with ANA.
