The ‘Flying Honu’ from All Nippon Airways (ANA) operating on the Narita-Honolulu route in usual circumstances, welcomed passengers aboard for an hour and a half scenic flight. The carrier sought to provide customers with the pleasures of air travel during these difficult times, and approximately 300 lucky passengers who were able to purchase the ‘platinum’ tickets through a 1:150 chance enjoyed a Hawaiian resort experience at the airport and onboard.

The design of this special aircraft comes from the Hawaiian sea turtle—a symbol of good luck and prosperity, in a hope that all passengers traveling with ANA will be blessed with happiness.

As with its regular flights, the ANA Care Promise safety and hygiene protocols including wearing masks, social distancing and continuous air ventilation were thoroughly implemented at all stages of the flight.
