TOKYO February 14, 2012 - ANA has been awarded the 'Airline Technology Leadership Award' for 2012 by Air Transport World (ATW), the leading monthly magazine covering the global airline industry.

Washington DC-based ATW bestowed its first awards for excellence in 1974; over thirty years later, they are regarded as the benchmark of quality and achievement for companies and individuals within the airline industry. Winners are chosen by a panel of judges composed of ATW editors from all over the world, after exhaustive debate, with nominations submitted from outside the magazine and the editorial team itself.
ATW commends ANA for "its role in the development and refinement of the Boeing 787" and voted them this year's Airline Technology Leadership award winners.
The editors lauded ANA's huge step in advancing airline service, capability and efficiency through being the launch customer and in-service provider for the 787. ATW editors noted that ANA is a leader in applying new technology across the airline, not just with new aircraft.

"ANA is very proud and honored to receive this Airline Technology Leadership Award," said Mitsuo Morimoto, ANA's Senior Executive Vice President. "We decided to become the launch customer for the Boeing 787 in 2004. From that time onward, we participated in the aircraft development, together with Boeing and other partners, as a member of the Working Together Team designed to bring this innovative new aircraft to the market. Participating in the team was a great opportunity for ANA and we contributed our know-how as the first airline to take delivery of the plane."
Mr. Morimoto attended the award ceremony held in Singapore on February 13, and was presented the award on behalf of ANA.
