20251024ANA01 - ANA/NCA to begin code-sharing on cargo flights to Europe and the Americas, to complement transport capacity

Code-sharing refers to flights operated jointly by multiple airlines.

The aircraft involved in this agreement is a Boeing 777F operated by ANA, which will jointly operate routes between Narita, Chicago, and Los Angeles with NCA.

In addition, NCA will implement codeshare agreements with ANA on North American routes connecting Narita with Chicago, New York, Dallas/Fort Worth, and Los Angeles, as well as on European routes connecting Narita with Amsterdam, Milan, and Frankfurt, using Boeing 747F aircraft operated by NCA.

The aim is to complement transport capacity and improve convenience in the large cargo aircraft operations operated by both ANA Group companies.

As a result, the ANA Group's cargo business can now handle large cargo and high-volume transport using ANA's six Boeing 767F and two Boeing 777F aircraft, as well as NCA's eight Boeing 747F aircraft, in addition to ANA's passenger flight network.
