ANA to Resume Nagoya – Shanghai Route

Posted 12/01/2012

Japanese carrier All Nippon Airways (ANA) has announced it will resume daily flights between Nagoya and Shanghai from March 25, 2012.  The route will be operated by a Boeing 737-700 on a schedule arranged to support both business and leisure demand with a morning rotation from Nagoya and a mid-afternoon return from Shanghai.

The international route is currently served by four other airlines with six daily flights.  Air China, China Southern Airlines and Japan Airlines (JAL) all offer a daily rotation, while China Eastern Airlines has a three times daily schedule on the route.  An estimated 413,000 O&D passengers travelled on the route in the past year.

ANA accounted for around 8 per cent of the traffic for the 12 months ending September 2011, a figure that will decline when full year estimates are available after the flight was suspended for the Northern Winter 2011/2012 schedule after it was reportedly unable to get its preferred slots in Shanghai.
