I Flew ANA's IMPRESSIVE 777 Premium Class! (Domestic)

ANA, or All Nippon Airways, is the largest airline in Japan, and is generally seen as one of the best airlines in the world.

In addition to an extensive international network, they also connect many cities within Japan, and some of those routes are flown with dedicated widebody aircraft configured just for domestic flights.

Towards the end of our visit to Japan in May, we needed to get from Osaka to Tokyo, and chose ANA for that flight. It turned out to be one of the best domestic flights I've ever had!

Back in 2002 I got to fly ANA domestic from Haneda to Chitose on a 747-400D, and then the return leg on a 777. Quite an experice using jumbos as short-hoppers!

I get so excited for Alex’s flight reviews! He’s the best!

probably one of the best takeoff scenes I've seen on YouTube, could really feel the speed and altitude build, great camera work!

I was lucky enough to fly on their domestic 777-300 back in August. I was seated in the mid-cabin just behind the wing and the window sides didn't have any bulkheads or lavatories between cabin zones. That meant I could see all the way to the front and all the way to the back, it was a surreal feeling to have seats upon seats upon seats in all directions. The only downside is that baggage claim took a time, with over 400 passengers worth of baggage to be distributed and a small baggage claim area to accomodate most of us. ANA was a firm childhood favorite of mine and I'm pleased Alex, you enjoyed your flight too!

Just loved the flight crew waving from the special liveried 777 and the ground crew doing the same! It's a nice touch. Enjoyed the video a lot - very jealous! :)

0:34 this is the exact reason Japan was one of the only countries to operate DOMESTIC 747 in the 1980s DESPITE having Shinkansen. Domestic and 747 aren't usually found in the same sentence but here we are.

Flight 123 which crashed on the Tokyo-Osaka route was a Domestic 747.

I've spend about three days just watching your videos as I have quite a shitty time. They really get me through the day. Keep it Up!

6:53 I’m feeling United Airlines vibe today with Triple 7’s still around for domestic (like Japan) and International flights and Listen to the amazing PW4000 on T/O 7:03

[vikingteng]

WoW ! I had ever took a ride on JA715A from HND to LAX in 2012. It's good to see this plane again!

[jacksongennet]

I once flew on a United 787-10 from Denver to San Francisco. It was definitely a new experience.

[HenrikRBX]

4:00 thats the smoothest landing this one as well 9:47 wow all their landings were beautiful!

[fredericrmerchant]

I flew ANA routinely from Narita to Naha Okinawa and Naha to Haneda a few times. The Narita flight was a 767-300 in domestic configuration. The cool thing about that flight was parking at a remote stand at Narita and busing to Terminal One. The Haneda flight was the 777-200 in 3-4-3 economy. Wasn’t that full thank god. Seating was tight.

[craigfed]

Love it! I recently flew “first” on a United 777 and that PW4000 sound is the best! Love your videos.

[williamchan]

Excellent video on ANA for a very reasonable upgrade to premium economy! Love how they have 2 entrances to the plane so no congestion or delays! Canadian airports should do the same, but not very likely for all gates in Vancouver, Calgary or Toronto.

[HoggerCaptain]

Wow! What a take off. Great video, Alex.

[jaypainespotter]

Thats crazy, I love ANA. I recently flew ANA 777-300ER in business class. Only 212 seats on those. The 787-8 on way back was 162 seats.

[wzardoios]

I have to say, this is the best Premium Economy seat that I’ve ever seen! Incredible, it just looked like the EKs B777s Business 😅

Hello Mr.Alex!　I am a resident near Itami Airport. I am very glad you introduced Itami Airport to us. Thank you very much. If you have a chance to come to Osaka again sometime, I hope you will visit Itami Sky Park and Senri River bank. Itami Sky Park is a park facing Runway 32L of Itami Airport, where you can enjoy watching takeoff and landing planes up close. The landing and reverse sound of a B767 seen from here is very powerful. Senri River Bank is located at the final of Runway 32L of Itami Airport, and as the name suggests, it is a river bank. This is less than 200 meters from the runway end. So you can enjoy close-up view of landing planes passing 25 to 35 meters above the runway like Maho Beach. Especially the B777 landing is a unique experience as you can feel the backward turbulence.
I enjoyed your video very much! Thanks!

This was lovely to watch as I'll be flying this same aircraft on ANA in November from Tokyo HND to Sapporo CTS for the first time though I'll be in Economy. Thanks for the sneak peek Alex and awesome job as always 😎👍🏻
