ANA, Hawaiian Airlines to Start Cargo Code-Share

Japan's All Nippon Airways and Hawaiian Airlines will launch a cargo code-sharing service between Tokyo and Honolulu on Dec.22.

The start of the service comes approximately two and a half months after carrier officials met in Tokyo and signed an agreement to establish a commercial partnership.

ANA began services Oct. 31 from the recently completed international terminal at Haneda International Airport in Tokyo to Honolulu. Hawaiian Airlines launched its first scheduled operations between Honolulu and Haneda on Nov. 17.

According to the airlines, ANA will place its "NH" code on Hawaiian Airlines' Haneda-Honolulu service, which operates daily using a 767-300ER.

"The new code-share not only covers cargo shipped direct from Haneda to Honolulu, but also aims to tap the market for freight between local cities throughout Japan and other Asian cities, and American cities beyond Honolulu," ANA and Hawaiian Airlines said in a joint statement.
