ANA launches temporary cargo service from China. Factory reopened on March 13 22:06
ANA Holdings, a major airline company, has decided to start operations in Shanghai and Guangzhou, China, and Narita Airport, mainly due to the spread of new coronavirus infections, which has led to a resumption of production at factories in China, where operations have been suspended. We have decided to operate a temporary cargo flight connecting.
In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, ANA Holdings has suspended or reduced a total of 155 air cargo flights between China and domestic airports last month.
However, recently, production has resumed at factories around the country, and the transport volume of automobile parts and semiconductors has been on a recovery trend. In addition, the transport of masks to Japan has increased, and the demand for cargo transportation has increased. That is.
However, as passenger flights carrying cargo are still undergoing major suspensions and reduced flights, we decided to operate temporary cargo flights on the assumption that we could not respond to increasing demand.
The special flights are scheduled to operate 68 flights between Shanghai and Guangzhou, China, Hong Kong and Taipei, Taiwan, and Narita by 28th of this month.
In addition, scheduled flights for some cargo will be changed to larger aircraft.
In addition, Nippon Yusen, a subsidiary of Nippon Yusen, which operates air cargo flights, plans to consider special flights in the future in response to requests from business partners.
