All Nippon Airways has announced that it will be conducting charters during the peak summer travel period, and will operate a total of 33 round trip flights on the Tokyo Haneda-Guam Route, utilizing B-747 aircraft.

“This is fantastic news,” stated GIAA Chairman Martin J. Gerber,”and indicates All Nippon Airways continued commitment to serving Guam despite their suspension of scheduled service.”

The charters will increase capacity from Tokyo by 18,645 seats, and will operate from Haneda instead of Narita, providing customers with more options and convenience to fly to Guam.

ANA began scheduled international service in March of 1986 with direct flights to Guam, and served the Kansai-Guam route until January of 2009. However, the Kansai-Guam route was picked up by Korean Airlines who started its Seoul-Kansai-Guam route in December.

“The ANA operations are significant, and we look forward to their return to our facilities this summer,” stated GIAA Executive Manager Carlos Salas. “We look forward to increased arrivals numbers, these charters being one of many we expect to operate to Guam during the summer months.”
