ANA launches new route from KL International Airport to Tokyo's Haneda Airport

30 October 2016

A welcome ceremony was held at the KL International Airport (KLIA) to commemorate the first arrival and departure of ANA’s Haneda – Kuala Lumpur – Haneda flights. The passengers were delighted to be greeted by a Malaysian cultural troupe upon their arrival and departure, together with Roy Gay, General Manager of KUL Branch, All Nippon Airways Co. Ltd and Mohd Arif Jaafar, General Manager of Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad.

Mohd Arif Jaafar said, “Malaysia Airports is thrilled and delighted to welcome ANA’s new flight from Haneda Airport and this new route will further promote KLIA’s status as a preferred hub in the region. Travellers from Japan now will have more options for access to Kuala Lumpur. I am confident with the launch of this new route, it will also enhance the image and reputation of ANA as a transportation conduit among air travellers in the region.”

ANA’s daily service departs KLIA at 2.15pm (MST) and arrives at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport at 10.15pm (JST). The return flight departs Tokyo at 12.05am (JST) and arrives KLIA at 6.35am (MST).

By offering new service at night-time to contrast with its existing daytime service between Narita and Kuala Lumpur, ANA is giving its passengers more choices for access to Kuala Lumpur from Japan and also to make effective use of Haneda's convenient location near the heart of the Tokyo metropolitan area. Haneda Airport is located less than 30 minutes south of central Tokyo, considerably closer to the city centre than Narita Airport, Tokyo’s other international airport.

In September 2015, ANA returned to Kuala Lumpur, after a 13-year hiatus; offering daily non-stop flights between Tokyo’s Narita and KLIA. The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner is a 240-seat passenger aircraft with 42 seats in Business Class and 198 seats in Economy Class.
