ANA is to operate two cargo-only flights between Munich, Germany, and Tokyo (Haneda), Japan on 26th and 28th March 2021, using a Boeing 787 Dreamliner with a 35-ton lower deck capacity.
ANA added Munich to its international network in July 2010 with daily flights from Tokyo.
Following the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and border closures, ANA took the decision to drastically reduce its capacity between Japan and Europe.
By returning to Munich, we are reopening trade lanes between Japan and southern Germany for automotive parts, machinery, pharmaceuticals, and other general cargo.
As Sadami SUGIMOTO, vice president of ANA Cargo EMEA, says: “ANA’s return to Munich is great news and the support from our customers and partners has been overwhelming. The reintroduction of cargo flights is an important step in strengthening economic relations between Japan and Germany. We will continue to explore all opportunities and also hope to resume passenger flights before long”.
