Japanese airline operates daily fight from Yangon to Tokyo with 202-seater Boeing 767

Japan-based All Nippon Airways (ANA) has operated its daily flight from Yangon to Tokyo by using new 202-seater Boeing 767 since Sept. 30 due to the increasing number of passengers traveling between Myanmar and Japan, official media reported Thursday.

ANA formally used 38-seater Boeing-737 aircraft serving flights to Tokyo from Yangon International Airport thrice a week, said the New Light of Myanmar.

Arrivals of Japanese visitors had reached 47,000 in 2012 compared to about 20,000 in the previous year.

Moreover, Japan will cooperate with Myanmar on safety aviation and other sectors.

ANA resumed its Yangon-Japan non-stop flight using 38-seater B- 737 aircraft on Oct. 15, 2012 after a 12-year long suspension.

ANA operated its flights between Japan and Myanmar from 1996 to 2000.
