ANA will lift Tokyo Narita–Mumbai to daily from 29 March 2026 using Boeing 787‑9s, while FY2026 international capacity rises about 5% as the carrier orders 787‑9s with upgraded cabins and folds Nippon Cargo into an expanded freighter network serving Asia and North America.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • ANA’s schedule change and fleet order translate to concrete capacity growth: international seats are being increased ~5% in FY2026 and Narita–Mumbai will move to daily 787‑9 service from 29 Mar 2026.

  • The 787‑9 order (linefit/upgraded cabins) signals continued widebody investment to support long‑haul growth and product refresh rather than short‑term upgauging.

  • Cargo integration with Nippon Cargo Airlines and expanded freighter routes materially strengthen ANA Group’s logistics footprint in Asia and North America; see the group’s recent cargo reorganisation and reciprocal freighter codeshare for background (source:793454b1-7218-4b9e-87e8-1464bf772062, source:3ff0c9b6-a6c4-4961-b5fb-cc1e896d9b6c).
