Overview
- An All Nippon Airways Shanghai–Haneda flight experienced a TCAS warning on final approach, pilots followed evasive procedures and no passengers or crew were hurt.
- Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism told ANA the event does not meet the threshold for a 'serious incident' or an abnormal close approach.
- Reports say both aircraft were on air‑traffic‑control approved routes and were about 1.1 kilometres apart horizontally and roughly 75 metres apart in altitude when the alert sounded.
- Crew on both planes reportedly had visual contact with each other and a ministry inspection aircraft was operating near the ANA jet at the time.
- ANA is carrying out an internal investigation and regulators will review flight data to determine why the TCAS issued an advisory and whether operational changes are needed.
