According to the text, how will ANA gain by acquiring the A380?
All Nippon Airways (ANA) is about to become the first Japanese carrier to own the Airbus A380 superjumbo jet. Reports have surfaced about ANA striking a billion-dollar deal with Airbus to buy three of its A380 superjumbo jets. The plan to buy the superjumbo jets is an effort by ANA to uplift its international business. The Japanese airline plans to introduce the planes on flights to Hawaii and other overseas destinations.
According to sources, the company paid about 150 billion yen or $1.23 billion to own the three A380 planes. In October, ANA announced that their six-month net profits had escalated 51% as a jump in inbound tourism boosted its international business, while falling oil prices also helped the airline's finances.
The double-decker A380 has a seating capacity of about 525, more than double of its current planes on the Hawaii flight. ANA hopes the superjumbo jet purchase will give it a leg up and allow it to increase the number of people it serves on flights to Hawaii.
