ANA will launch a new route from Tokyo to Brussels later this year.
Commencing on 25 October 2015, the Japanese airline will fly daily from Tokyo’s Narita Airport to the Belgian capital, using a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft.
Flights will depart Narita at 1115, arriving in Brussels at 1515. The return service will then leave at 2050, getting back into Tokyo at 1610 the following day.
The route was first announced earlier this year, but this is the first time details of the launch date, schedule and aircraft type have been confirmed.
“As a major economic, commercial and political centre, Brussels is an increasingly important market for us,” said Osamu Shinobe, president & CEO of ANA. “More and more passengers are flying between Tokyo and Brussels but they currently have to do so by transiting through other cities.
“By becoming the only Japanese airline to offer direct flights to the city, ANA will dramatically improve access for passengers to and from Japan,” he added.
ANA will also offer onward connections from Brussels via its joint venture partners Lufthansa, SWISS and Austrian Airlines, plus fellow Star Alliance member Brussels Airlines.
