What we know about NH970

What flying SHA to HND takes

It is a medium-haul sector, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. All Nippon Airways needs a narrowbody on the longer variants, or a widebody where demand justifies it: at this distance the choice is usually about seat count rather than range. In daylight the sun sits on the right (south-facing) side of the cabin for most of the crossing.

How we verified this

The origin and destination on this page are the ones we verified for callsign ANA970 through adsbdb, not a schedule copied from elsewhere. We have logged it airborne on 6 days between 2026-09-20 and 2026-09-25. Across 5 recorded legs the typical departure falls around 06:00 UTC. Timings are observations, not an official operational status: always confirm with the airline before travelling.

This page was published from our own tracking record rather than a third-party schedule feed, so it grows as we see the flight again. The seven-day log below is the raw version of the same evidence.

NH970 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 7 observations of NH970 across 7 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-09-25. Those records contain 2 distinct transponder addresses. The most frequently resolved route was SHA-HND (7 records).

The median recorded visibility was 107 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.
