ANA, Yamato begin same day baggage delivery service for int'l travellers to

ANA and delivery service Yamato Transport are collaborating to offer Japan’s first ever same day baggage delivery service between two cities. The service leverages the two companies’ networks to allow international visitors to Japan to send their baggage same day between 4 designated hotels in the Tokyo region and the Osaka/Kyoto region for JPY2,000 per piece. The service began March 23. Based on customer feedback and data during the trial period, the companies will expand the service and coverage areas later this year. ANA and Yamato Transport are pioneering this service as part of their continuing efforts to improve convenience, and have high expectations as the number of international visitors to Japan, especially those from Asia, continues to soar to 19.74m in 2015, an increase of 47.1% year on year. <br/>
