ANA Modifies Final Flight Schedule for “R2-D2 ANA JET” Arriving at Haneda on the 7th Afternoon
Flights connecting Japan with Europe and America are experiencing significant delays due to the volcanic eruption on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula.
Affected flights include those between northern, central, and eastern United States, and those flying the northern route to and from Europe. Flights to northern, central, and eastern America face delays of approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, while Europe-bound flights are delayed by about 1 to 2 hours. Other routes using the same aircraft are also impacted.
Additionally, flight NH109 from New York/John F. Kennedy to Tokyo/Haneda scheduled on August 9 was canceled due to the inability to coordinate crew adjustments arising from the volcanic eruption. Flight JL3 is expected to depart with an 11-hour delay due to crew arrangement time.
Flight UA130 from Tokyo/Haneda to New York/Newark will stop in San Francisco, and flight UA78 from Tokyo/Narita to New York/Newark will transit via Denver for crew changes.
