FIA2022 | ANA Finalises Order For 20 737 MAX 8, and 777X Freighter

18 July 2022




FARNBOROUGH, 18 July 2022 | Within the first few hours of Farnborough Airshow, Japanese Carrier,ANA (All Nippon Airways), confirmed an order for 20 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, alongside several 777X freighter aircraft, comprising of 777-9F and 777-8F. This makes the airline the first to fly 737 MAXs in Japan and the first carrier in Asia to use the 777X Freighter.

With commonality and enhanced efficiency, the 737-8 will enable ANA to optimize its fleet across its operations while reducing fuel use and carbon emissions by 20% and noise by 50% compared to airplanes it replaces. The 737 MAX family has the latest CFM International LEAP-1B engines, advanced technology winglets and other aerodynamic enhancements to improve performance and reduce operating costs. More than 40 airlines globally are operating the 737 MAX, which has made over 680,000 revenue flights totaling nearly 1.7 million flight hours since late 2020.

"We are pleased to partner with Boeing to introduce new airplanes into our world-class fleet that further our commitment to sustainable aviation," said Koji Shibata, President and CEO of ANA HOLDINGS. "The efficiency, reliability and range capability of the 737 MAX make it an ideal airplane to refresh our narrow-body fleet and provide our passengers with the highest level of comfort onboard. In addition, the 777-8 Freighters will add flexibility and efficiency to our air cargo network. The 737 and 777 have long been a mainstay of the ANA fleet, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Boeing with these new airplanes."
