Japan-based All Nippon Airways is launch a free, high-speed in-flight internet service capable of video streaming for all international classes on its B767-300ER (202-seat configuration, JA625A) aircraft.

Powered by systems from US-based Viasat Inc., the service will be phased in with the aim to complete modifications on three B767-300ER aircraft by the end of fiscal year (FY) 2025. By FY 2026, the airline plans to extend the high-speed Wi-Fi access across all six B767-300ER aircraft. ANA will also integrate Viasat’s system into additional new international aircraft after FY 2026, progressively expanding service across its fleet.
