All Nippon Airways has a higher stake in the regional airline, Peach, which is a low-cost carrier. It is a joint venture between ANA and Hong Kong-based company First Eastern Investment Group.

ANA also has 9.5 per cent stakes in Philippine Airlines and about 8.8 per cent shares in Vietnam Airlines. The airline joined the bandwagon of alliance airlines by becoming a member of Star Alliance in 1999. In 2013, the United Kingdom-based airline and airport review and ranking consultancy, Skytrax, named All Nippon Airways as a 5-star rated airline. Much recently, ANA also announced that they would be chartering private jet flights, after a deal with ANA Business Je Co. Ltd., and Sojitz took off in 2018.

Before moving its management operations to Shiodome City Centre, All Nippon Airways was headquartered on the grounds of Tokyo International Airport (Tokyo Haneda International Airport) in ?ta, Tokyo. The current livery followed by all the All Nippon Airways aircraft has a white and grey fuselage while a blue stripe has been painted under the windows. ANA's logo has been painted on top of the windows with the brand's slogan, "Inspiration of Japan". The vertical stabiliser has also been painted blue with the abbreviation of All Nippon Airways (ANA) painted sideways.
