TOKYO, JAPAN, 2020-Dec-08 — /Travel PR News/ — All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan’s largest and 5-Star airline for eight consecutive years was presented with FlightGlobal’s prestigious Decade of Airline Excellence Award for the Asia-Pacific region. The award comes after a decade of strong growth and recognizes ANA for its continued focus on maximizing comfort and convenience for each passenger. Over the past ten years, ANA has expanded its global network, increased the size of its fleet, and launched Peach Air and Vanilla Air, Japan’s first low-cost carriers. In addition, ANA was the launch customer for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

“This is a prestigious award, and we are humbled to be recognized by FlightGlobal as the premier airline for the past 10 years in the Asia-Pacific region,” said President Yuji Hirako. “Given that this award was presented for an entire decade of excellence, it is a significant achievement and speaks to the culture of service and Japanese hospitality that each of our employees embodies on a daily basis. We have always sought to create the best possible travel experience for our passengers, and your recognition of our efforts will raise spirits across the entire organization.”

The recognition from FlightGlobal is the latest in a long line of awards that ANA has earned in a range of categories including passenger service and design innovation.

ANA has strongly revived through the past decade, overcoming the turmoil following the global financial crisis and devastating Great East Japan earthquake. As the global community again faces new challenges from an unprecedented crisis, ANA remains focused on doing all it can to continue connecting travelers to locations across the globe and embarking on new pursuits to transform its business model. Through the next decade, ANA will continue working to raise its standards and overcome any new challenges to improve the travel experience for all passengers.
