Pending government approval, Japanese airline ANA will launch daily flights between Tokyo Haneda and Sydney from 11 December 2015.  All flights will be operated using ANA’s newest aircraft type, the B787-9 Dreamliner.

ANA is focusing on the expansion of its international network as part of a new longterm strategy, through which it is aiming to increase revenue from international flights by 50 per cent over the next 10 years. The airline launched direct flights to Houston last month, and will commence services to Kuala Lumpur and Brussels in September and October 2015 respectively.
