ANA launching flights to Perth
Japan’s All Nippon Airways will launch direct Tokyo-Perth flights in September 2019.
The daily Boeing 787 service is the result of collaboration with Tourism Western Australia, Perth Airport and Tourism Australia," said Seiichi Takahashi, senior vice president of ANA.
ANA is ‘excited to add Perth to our list of world-class destinations,’ Takahashi said.
State tourism officials expect the service to bring in 76,000 new visitors from Japan to Perth over the next three years, generating A$175 million in tourism related spending.
The service ‘will deliver a windfall gain for tourism and the broader WA economy,’ says Perth Airport chief executive Kevin Brown.
ANA’s also flies nonstop to Sydney.
Qantas previously operated Tokyo-Perth flights but shelved the route back in 2011.
