The ANA B787-9 to India | All Nippon Airways Economy Class | Tokyo to Delhi | Trip Report

Hello everyone, and welcome to yet another Skytrax 5 Star Airline: All Nippon Airways!
We’re flying today on their Boeing 787-9 from Haneda to Delhi.

According to Skytrax “the world’s 4th best airline in 2024”.

Yeah, I can tell you already that I disagree.. While ANA stands for quality and “Inspiration of Japan”, and I truly enjoy the airline on my trips to Japan, it failed to meet my expectations on this particular journey to India, as well as what was that of many around me.

India is the country with most vegetarians and Hindus in the world.
So what is the point of serving beef on such a flight? Or not to have any movie of what is world’s biggest cinema producer?
Airlines all over the world are battling it out to attract as many South Asian customers as possible. And many will offer an adapted service to meet all needs and requirements, except for what I saw on ANA!

So, while ANA has a lot of strengths, and offers a true Japanese service, it also has a big amount of shortfalls.

Join me and see for yourself.

Have a lot of fun and thank you for being here!

it's always exciting when you make a video to and from India! great video as always.

I like your videos - good info, no talking showing the whole ‘airline’ experience with the seats/meals/airports /airplane, the landings the taxi the take off it’s all there , good music -this is a proper airline review - no belittling countries and security checks and or the food the constant rant about ‘Delhi belly/food poisoning/ the roads etc in India it’s so overdone (I know India has its problems but there are so many good things as well ) would love to mention names of some German and English airline reporters who do that all the time talk negative about India and other countries, like the sound of their voice so they go on and on but I won’t (don’t want to even give them even that much publicity) they just lucked out starting earlier and so have a subscriber base ( not me) . Anyway keep these reviews coming and I really wish you go right to number one in this genre of YouTubers. All the best .

I love your music choices! The airport tour/check in music has become a signature sound on this channel. The original music video even has fans commenting about you :)

I also flew this route last year and their service especially from Tokyo to Delhi was really good and there food was mind blowing and what really surprised me was that they serve metal cutlery
They even gave us lots of snacks
Although the Indian content on the ife was very limited but still the ife has enough things to keep us occupied for 8 hours
The sign in the toilet is not at all a problem because some people can be a little dumb or stupid
These signs are also present on air india
Overall it was a good experience flying with them

We flew ANA from LA to Tokyo about 10 years and enjoyed the trip ! John & Janice.

Yes! Thank you! I was waiting for this video for so long. By the way, amazing video as always. I actually have to go to school, so I will try to finish the rest of the video when I come back.”

[rachellemiller]

thank you for your consistent work and high-quality videos, must be hard doing a YouTube channel and doing work all to bring smiles to viewers nice video by the way

7:00 That was unfortunate.

Glad NH is finally featured in your channel and to be fair, I think I agree with your criticisms which I find refreshing and objective especially when most reviewers on YT just heap praises on JL and NH.

I agree with your take on their business class. It looks pretty generic considering their premium branding but if I'm not mistaken, they just added a new business class design lately and I hope you could give it a try one day.

Cheers!

Fantastic video! I find ANA's cabin quite disappointing compared to JAL. Their seats are less wide and the screens look very small and old for a plane built in 2016. Calling that food item 'naan' is insulting to Indian culture. 24:10, thank you for showing the city close to my home, Lucknow. I wish you come here some day. As a foodie you will really like the Awadhi cuisine there (you can get way better naan there). The lack of vegetarian food options for a flight to India is intolerable. I know someone who had to survive on fruits and juice on this entire 7+ hr flight. What are we getting for the next video?

Wonderful trip review Alex, dont know how I missed it 3 weeks ago

[bearchan]

Window seats get to onboard first mainly because if we go by the normal order, there will be congestion at the walkway. Personally I find it a better system.

Forgot to add, hence an edit. I believe the act of gifting in Japan when they are the host (as in providing service with the touch of omotenashi) is the same as the act of tipping in Japan. Not only it is rude, but outright insulting. Back when I work in a Japanese company, the host rejected our gifts (sambal paste from Malaysia). Kind of spoilt a bit of mood in an otherwise good working trip in Japan.

I believe the flight control check and selecting flaps after commencing taxi is standard ANA procedure. There are several very old ANA cockpit videos (just search ANA Blue on Blue on youtube), and they actually do that in those videos. I believe it's to shorten their ground time just a little bit.

[ictoan]

Please bring back the intro I loved it it always gave your channel its own vibe compared to other flight reviewers. And nice video!

[wingeditz]

Idea: in your videos add chapters so people can more easily navigate through your video! Like add timestamps in description for like boarding, takeoff, IFE, etc! Just an idea, amazing video as always! ✈️🇯🇵🇮🇳

[aaryan]

Great video, Alex, I always look forward to your trips to and from India😬

[Comedians_flash]

Why he has only 55k subscribe he deserves millions of subscribers that's

The effort he puts he deserves millions subscribers 😢

[byromania]

You never disappoint with your trip reports because they are consistently excellent!! When I saw those clouds at 14:35, they immediately reminded me of the purser on your flight. Take care and have a great day!!

[guidebooktraveller]

Nice TR, thanks for taking us along. Like 664 from a new friend🙏❤️

[Jason-bkjw]

Yes 🙌 Finally ANA ! That too to DEL NH837..!!

[ALIN_SOHAN]

As usual the best trip report channel on youtube with best videos and a ton of info. As an Indian, yes it was sad to see the menu option plus the lavatory notice specifically on this route...I know there are issues, well who doesn't, not everyone is perfect, but we all are trying our best. So I think ANA should take note from your video and try to improve the route services keeping their faith upon us😊🤔😌 Love from INDIA🧡🤍💚.
