ANA Holdings is under pressure to develop a business that can secure profits amid the ongoing severe management due to the impact of the new coronavirus.
As part of this, ANA will start freight transportation on the Group's LCC and Peach Aviation aircraft to supplement ANA's freight transportation, which is reducing the scale of operations, and will be the first flight at Fukuoka Airport, Naha. Approximately 560 kg of cargo, including fresh food, was loaded onto a passenger plane bound for the airport.
According to the company, the demand for freight transportation is increasing due to the so-called nesting demand.
