ANA will launch Dreamliner services between Tokyo Haneda and Frankfurt on January 21, 2012, using a version of the aircraft featuring the carrier’s Staggered fully-flat business class seating.
The Japanese airline will initially offer a three-times weekly B787 service (Monday, Thursday and Saturday) between the two cities, increasing to daily from February 1.
Flight NH203 will depart Haneda at 0100, arriving in Frankfurt at 0525, with return leg NH204 leaving Germany at 1115 and landing back in Tokyo at 0645 the next day.
The Dreamliner aircraft being used for long-haul services will feature 46 fully-flat business class “Staggered” seat (click here for more information) and 112 economy seats, as opposed to ANA’s regional / domestic configuration which offers 12 lie-flat business class seats and 252 in economy.
Seatplans for both versions of the carrier’s B787 aircraft can be seen here.
ANA already serves Frankfurt and Munich in Germany from Tokyo’s Narita airport, as well as European routes to London and Paris.
