About All Nippon

All Nippon Airways (ANA) is a Japanese airline headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, and is Japan's largest airline by fleet size and passengers carried. The airline's earliest ancestor, Japan Helicopter and Aeroplane Transports Company, was founded on December 27, 1952. It began helicopter services in February 1953 and its first cargo flight in December 1953. After merging with Far East Airlines in March 1958, the company officially became All Nippon Airways.

ANA operates extensive domestic and international services, with its main hubs located at Tokyo-Haneda (HND) and Tokyo-Narita (NRT) airports. Secondary hubs include Osaka-Itami (ITM), Osaka-Kansai (KIX), Chubu Centrair International Airport (Nagoya) (NGO), Fukuoka, Naha, and Sapporo-Chitose. The airline's route network encompasses over 50 domestic destinations and approximately 25 international destinations across Europe, South Asia, East Asia, and North America, operating 85 international and 119 domestic routes.

ANA's fleet consists of a diverse range of Boeing and Airbus aircraft, including Airbus A320s, A321s, A380s and Boeing 737s, 767s, 777s, and 787s Dreamliner aircraft. With a fleet size of around 216 to 260 aircraft and an average age of 6.6 years, ANA is notably the largest operator of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. As a member of Star Alliance since October 1999, ANA extends its global reach through a network of partner airlines. The airline offers distinct cabin classes: First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class, and is consistently recognized as a Skytrax 5-star airline since 2013 for its high-quality service, particularly in its premium cabins which feature private, lie-flat suites and gourmet dining.

What Travelers Love:

  • Excellent Service and Staff: Passengers frequently praise the politeness, friendliness, and helpfulness of the cabin and ground crew, highlighting the exceptional service, particularly on international routes and in premium classes.
  • Comfortable Premium Cabins: Premium Economy and First Class are highly regarded for comfort, with First Class offering spacious, private, lie-flat suites that contribute to a luxurious travel experience.
  • High-Quality Dining: Onboard meals, especially in First and Business Class, receive strong positive feedback for their gourmet quality, featuring seasonal ingredients and local Japanese specialties.
  • Punctuality: ANA has been recognized for its strong on-time performance, particularly in the Asia Pacific region.

Common Complaints:

  • Slow In-flight Entertainment and Wi-Fi: Some travelers report issues with the entertainment system being slow and the Wi-Fi being unreliable or sluggish.
  • Domestic Flight Limitations: Passengers occasionally note a lack of complimentary beverages or in-flight entertainment on domestic routes.
  • Customer Service and Booking Difficulties: Recurring complaints revolve around frustrations with the online booking process, difficulties in making flight changes, challenges in obtaining refunds, and unresponsive customer service.
  • Seat Selection Fees: Some economy class passengers have expressed dissatisfaction over additional fees for selecting aisle or window seats on international flights.

Overall, ANA garners appreciation for its distinguished in-flight service and comfortable premium products, upholding its reputation as a 5-star airline. However, the airline faces criticism for inconsistencies in its digital experience and customer support, along with certain domestic flight amenities.

Safety Information

All Nippon Airways maintains a strong operational safety record, with a focus on high safety standards. The airline has not experienced any fatal passenger accidents in over five decades.

While ANA has a commendable safety history, its public record lists some serious incidents. In January 2025, an ANA flight encountered turbulence, injuring five cabin crew members, one seriously. Other recent incidents include a flight in September 2024 departing with improperly maintained main landing gear tires and another experiencing brakes malfunction. An incident in October 2024 involved a rejected takeoff due to engine failure. Historically, ANA was involved in a mid-air collision in 1971, which resulted in 162 fatalities and led to the establishment of the Japan Transport Safety Board, and a crash off Matsuyama in 1966 that killed 50 people.

ANA's commitment to safety is a top priority, and the airline consistently receives high marks in global safety evaluations. The airline's fleet has an average age of 6.6 years, and ANA has subsidiaries dedicated to aircraft maintenance, which contribute to its maintenance reputation. ANA has received several safety-related recognitions, including the "World's Best Airline Cabin Cleanliness" award multiple times from SKYTRAX (four times as of 2022, and again in 2023). It was also awarded a 5-star COVID-19 safety rating by SKYTRAX in 2021 for its initiatives to provide a safe and hygienic environment. Additionally, ANA received the APEX World Class Award for its safe and clean cabin environment.
