ANA suspends 16 international routes
Five routes planned from Tokyo Haneda to destinations in Europe and the US are among the cancellations.
Japan’s All Nippon Airways (ANA) is suspending more than a dozen international routes from late March as COVID-19 travel restrictions and quarantine measures continue to impact passenger demand.
The decision affects 16 services that are already operating or were due to begin during the summer season, overlapping with the Tokyo Olympic Games due to start on July 23. In addition, the airline is reducing frequencies on a further three international routes.
Announcing its interim flight schedule for the period from March 28 to Oct. 30, ANA said domestic routes would make up the core of the company’s earnings, adding the airline would “aggressively reorganize its route network to maximize revenues.”
“Flights will mainly be operated using smaller aircraft to temporarily downsize operations and reduce costs,” a statement released by ANA said. “With the early retirement of Boeing 777 aircrafts, a greater number of long-haul flights will be operated with the Boeing 787 aircraft to raise operational efficiency.”
The Star Alliance member said that compared with the 2020 financial year, the usage rate of large aircraft during the 2021 fiscal period would be reduced by 50%, while the usage rate of small aircraft would increase by 30%. In October 2020 the airline revealed it would retire 22 older 777s.
On the carrier’s international operations, 10 routes have been suspended from Tokyo Narita (NTR), while five services scheduled to launch from Tokyo Haneda (HND) have been postponed indefinitely. Frequencies will be reduced on three other routes from HND and one service from Osaka Kansai (KIX) has been canceled.
From NRT, the move affects routes to Chennai (MMA), Dusseldorf (DUS), Jakarta (CGK), Mumbai (BOM), New York John F Kennedy (JFK), Perth (http://PER), Phnom Penh (PNH), San Francisco (SFO), Taipei (TPE) and Vladivostok (VVO).
Planned route launches from HND to Istanbul (IST), Milan (MXP), Moscow (DME), San Jose (SJC) and Stockholm (ARN) will not go ahead, while routes to Bangkok (BKK), Los Angeles (LAX) and Sydney (SYD) will continue to operate but with lower frequencies than previously planned. Additionally, ANA will suspend flights between KIX and Hong Kong (HKG).
“Due to the continued impact of COVID-19 as well as related immigration restrictions and quarantine measures, ANA will continue to review and adjust its flight schedule and increase or reduce the frequency of flights accordingly,” ANA said. “However, we will continue to monitor demand trends and resume or increase flights on a monthly basis.”
On the airline’s domestic network, ANA plans to suspend two routes from KIX to Fukuoka (FUK) and Memanbetsu (MMB), as well as NRT-Itami (ITM).

Airbus Helicopters resilient in 2020
Steadfast priorities: supporting customers and setting the stage for the future
Marignane, 26 January 2021 – In 2020, Airbus Helicopters logged 289 gross orders (net: 268) in a challenging market heavily impacted by the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, reinforcing the company’s position on the civil and parapublic market. Additionally, the company delivered 300 rotorcraft worldwide despite the pandemic travel restrictions, resulting in a stable 48% share of the civil and parapublic market and thus allowing Airbus Helicopters to maintain its market-leading position thanks to its wide range of competitive products designed to enable customers to perform a multitude of missions.
“I am proud of our teams all over the world who adapted their ways of working to be there for our customers when they needed us the most, striving to help them to maintain their essential missions across the globe by delivering helicopters and the associated support and services they required. I would like to thank our customers for their continued trust in Airbus Helicopters,” said Bruno Even, Airbus Helicopters CEO. “We certified the five-bladed H145 and the H160 and laid solid foundations for our pursuit of zero-emission technologies with our CityAirbus demonstrator,” he added.
Key deliveries in 2020 included the first five-bladed H145 to launch customer Norsk Luftambulanse, a helicopter emergency medical services operator, at the end of September, followed by deliveries to DRF Luftrettung at the end of the year. On the heavy side, the first H225Ms were handed over to the Kuwait Air Force as well as the first NH90s for the Spanish Air Force. September also saw the 463rd delivery, on time, on cost, and on quality, of an UH-72A Lakota from the Airbus Helicopters factory in Columbus, Mississippi.
Order highlights for 2020 consist of 84 helicopters for the best-selling H145, including 17 UH-72B for the US Army, the first Fenestron and Helionix-equipped versions to be ordered.
The H135 achieved solid sales with 33 units and also received the EASA certification of an alternate gross weight as well as a new single pilot IFR cockpit layout at the end of 2020. Milestone Aviation and Heli-Union both became new customers for the multi-mission H160, ordered to address a wide range of missions including offshore transportation.
The NH90 had a successful 2020 with the Bundeswehr placing an order for 31 naval helicopters to replace the ageing Sea Lynx fleet due to be retired. The French Armament General Directorate (DGA) confirmed the development of a new Standard 2 version to equip the French Special Forces and the first NH90 for Qatar performed its maiden flight at the end of the year.
On the customer support and service side, once again there was a strong showing for HCare support contracts, with new customers joining the ranks such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Air Methods Corporation. Facing the global pandemic, the company mobilised to keep its military and civil customers flying thanks to elevated levels of technical and logistics support, new distance learning solutions, and direct assistance from Airbus Helicopters in making protective equipment available to pilots and crews. A new AirbusWorld collaborative customer platform was launched based on feedback from customers, offering a streamlined user experience and new functionalities aimed at fostering open dialogue among operators and with the company.
Airbus Helicopters’ resilient business model allows the company to continue investing and preparing the future. In 2020, innovation milestones included the first fully automatic flight of CityAirbus, a demonstrator that will play an important role in developing zero-emission flight and in preparing the future urban air mobility market. The VSR700, the company’s rotary-wing unmanned aerial system, performed its first free flight in July and autonomous deck-landing trials at the end of the year.
