All Nippon Airways remains one of the world’s best airlines because of the quality of their airplanes, comfort, cleanliness, and genuine service. Here is a detailed review of All Nippon Airways Business Class from Narita, Tokyo to San Jose, California:
Narita to San Jose on Flight NH 172 features the airline’s Boeing 787-8 aircraft in which there are 46 Business Staggered seats in the 1-2-1 configuration.
The best seats in the cabin are the odd-numbered rows which are right next to the window providing you with the most privacy and great views for take-off and landing.
Business Class passengers enjoy premium amenities including a mattress pad, comforter, and pillow as well as a luxury-brand amenity kit that they can take home.
Aside from what is provided in your seat, there are extra amenities with you can ask from your flight attendant or find them in the bathroom and galley. These include mouthwash, wipes, moisturizer, comb, and mask. You will also be given bottled water after the first meal service.
For the flights across the Pacific, Business Class passengers are offered two meal services. The first is a full dinner from amuse-bouche to dessert and the second is a lighter meal. You can pre-order the first meal online to guarantee your preferred choice, including special meals for dietary restrictions. The monthly menus are updated each quarter.
The menu offers a choice of a Japanese meal or an International meal. Both are conceived and curated by celebrity chefs from Japan and around the world.
Compared to previous years, All Nippon’s entertainment selection has greatly improved with an up-to-date list of the latest Hollywood releases, Japanese, and international movies. You can download the ANA app before your flight and use your phone as a remote in-flight via the app. Note that the Sony noise-canceling headphones do not have the best noise-canceling feature, so if you are picky about it, it is best to bring your own.
Select aircrafts will have WiFi for a charge (about $22 for the full duration of the flight). Be sure to have your credit card information ready for the payment process.
