All Nippon Airways (ANA) Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, the first Dreamliner delivered to the airline in the world, arrived at Beijing Capital International Airport on Jan. 14.
This is the first Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft operated commercially arriving at the airport. The Dreamliner is scheduled to operate the same-day-return flights between Tokoy-Haneda and Beijing on Jan. 14, 17 and 18.
ANA has ordered a total of 55 Deamliners which will serve as the carrier's main fleet in the future. There will be more Boeing 787 aircraft operating the flights from Japan to China in the near future, according to the source of ANA.
The Beijing route was scheduled to start in December, but has been rescheduled for January due to the delay delivery of Boeing 787.
