ANA establishes superiority in its home market
To much of the outside world, All Nippon Airways (ANA) is Japan's quiet achiever. Privately owned and again profitable, ANA has in the past been overshadowed by its more conspicuous competitor and flag carrier, Japan Airlines (JAL) – until now. While JAL has been struggling back to its feet after its stint in bankruptcy protection, ANA has picked up the mantle, overtaking JAL as Japan’s dominant carrier, proving itself a versatile and dynamic competitor in the wider Asian market, as well as domestically.
