All Nippon Airways has announced that the Boeing B787 Dreamliner’s inaugural flight will be an international charter between Tokyo Narita and Hong Kong.
The inaugural flight is scheduled to take place a month after the aircraft is delivered in September. Passengers can experience the maiden flight by purchasing ANA’s special package tour. Further details of prices and dates will be released in due course.
After this inaugural flight, the aircraft will be used on commercial domestic routes between Haneda and either Okayama or Hiroshima (see story here).
