All Nippon Airways (ANA) will expand its international network by adding five cities, Istanbul, Milan, Moscow, Shenzhen and Stockholm; from Tokyo Haneda International Airport (HND) starting in summer 2020. The addition of these routes brings the total number of international cities served by ANA flights to 52.
There is growing demand to visit Japan and ANA will increase its international service, just as Haneda Airport also expands to adapt for inbound Japanese tourism.
