ANA to launch services to Houston
New route will expand network between Asia and the Americas
Summer schedule will also see more flights to Singapore and
Bangkok
TOKYO, December 11, 2014 - ANA, Japan's leading airline, is to
launch a new route from Narita to Houston, the capital of the US
oil and energy industry, from June next year as part of an
expansion of its network between the Americas and the growing Asian
market.
The new ANA summer schedule will also see an increase in flights
from Tokyo to Singapore and Bangkok, making it easier for transfer
passengers to connect between its Asian and American networks.
Houston not only enjoys significant demand for flights to Asia,
but is also one of the biggest hub airports for ANA's joint venture
partner United Airlines. This will enable ANA to improve access for
its passengers to Central and South America via Houston. The
airport has a wealth of domestic and international connections
making it easier for passengers from Asian countries to fly through
to various US destinations and other countries with growing
business demand such as Mexico and Brazil.
ANA will increase the number of flights from Tokyo to Singapore
and Bangkok by introducing twice daily services from Narita to
these two cities in addition to the existing double daily service
from Haneda airport. Flights from Singapore and Bangkok arriving in
Narita early morning will increase the number of North American
cities that can be connected and will, together with the evening
flight, greatly increase the convenience of Asia-North America
connections at Narita.
Osamu Shinobe, President and CEO of ANA said, "We are very
pleased to be launching a new international service from Tokyo to
Houston. Houston will be our tenth destination in North America and
will provide a great gateway to Central and South America from
Japan and many other Asian countries. Together with our joint
venture partner United, we are confident that passenger demand will
be high and that our expanding network will provide customers with
greater choice."
The details of the flight plan are shown on the attached
PDF.
Reservations for these new flights will be available from
December 17.
*Flight plans are subject to approval by the relevant
authorities. All schedules are subject to change.
