New Delhi: After the Middle East and South East Asian airlines it is now Japan's All Nippon Airways, which has declared its ambitions of becoming the next gateway carrier for India, aiming to scoop up the US-bound passenger and take them to their destination via its transit hub in Tokyo.
In the near future, All Nippon Airways (ANA) not only plans to add a couple of more Indian cities to its network but also quadruple capacity to Mumbai, where it has daily flights.
"Without India market we can not survive. Our location is very good for connections as from Narita airport in Tokyo it takes only two hours to reach the US west coast. Also, we would take lesser time than Gulf carriers to fly to the US," All Nippon Airways General Manager (India) Kenji Sugino told ET.
