TOKYO June 22, 2011 - ANA, Japan’s largest airline and the launch customer for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, will celebrate the arrival of the world’s most innovative aircraft with a specially-designed livery for the first two aircraft to enter its fleet.
The special livery was unveiled today at the Paris Airshow in Le Bourget.
The numbers 787 are painted big in bold and blue at the front of the aircraft to signify that ANA will be the first airline in the world to fly the Dreamliner. The blue lines at the rear of the fuselage are designed to highlight how the three core elements of the airline’s service brand - innovation, uniqueness and the inspiration of modern Japan - operate across the ANA network.
ANA has ordered a total of 55 Dreamliners for domestic and international routes and the first 787 aircraft is due to be delivered in August or September. Only the first two aircraft will be painted in the special livery. The remainder of the fleet will feature the standard ANA livery.
