All Nippon Airways "ANA"

ANA announced a newly expanded halal menu for its in-flight meals to address the wide range of dietary needs by a growing number of international ANA passengers. 

All Nippon Airways "ANA" is the largest airline in Japan by passenger numbers. 

Since January 2014, ANA has partnered with Brahim’s Holdings Berhad, a Malaysia-based company and the world’s largest purveyor of halal cuisine, to provide halal-certified meals aboard ANA flights. 

With a fleet of 245 aircraft, ANA flies today on 73 international routes and 117 domestic routes, carrying over 50 million passengers a year.

The new menu item will be available on First Class. Beginning on July 1, 2015, ANA has begun offering halal-certified Japanese Style Chicken Curry created in collaboration with Brahim’s, as a light meal option

Through the partnership ANA Catering Service, which is responsible for all in-flight meals and beverages for the ANA Group, has obtained certification to produce halal cuisine at its facility in Kawasaki, Japan. ANA began serving halal-certified "Arare" rice crackers on all international flights from June 2015.

Also on September 1, ANA Business Class and Economy Class passengers will have the choice of organic "Sunpu Aoido Shizuoka Green Tea", the first green tea in Japan to receive halal certification. 

On the same day, ANA will also begin serving a high-quality, Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosé Wine in all First Class cabins, which will also be available for a limited time in the Business Class cabin of the upcoming Tokyo-Kuala Lumpur flight, to commemorate the launch of the service. 

All in-flight meals on Kuala Lumpur departures to Tokyo supplied from Brahim’s will be halal-certified.
