All Nippon Airways’ parent company, ANA Holdings, has announced efforts to secure a steady supply of spare operating aircraft in response to ongoing supply chain challenges.
In its fiscal 2025 network update, which runs through March 31, 2026, ANA Holdings—encompassing low-cost carriers Peach and AirJapan—outlined plans to optimize aircraft deployment to maintain and improve punctuality, particularly for domestic operations. While the company did not specify the number or type of spare aircraft it aims to acquire, the move underscores its commitment to operational reliability.
The group also emphasized managing its operating fleet carefully amid adjustments related to new aircraft deliveries and scheduled engine maintenance. This comes as ANA faces potential delays in receiving Boeing 737 Max and 777-9 aircraft, originally expected during the upcoming fiscal year.
Additionally, ANA is addressing maintenance issues with the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G engines, which power its Airbus A320neo family aircraft, as part of its broader strategy to ensure fleet stability and operational efficiency.
