Air Central Co., Ltd. (エアーセントラル株式会社, Eā Sentoraru Kabushiki-gaisha) was an airline based in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It operated passenger services as All Nippon Airways (ANA) flights from its main base is Chūbu Centrair International Airport near Nagoya. On October 1, 2010, Air Central, Air Next and Air Nippon Network were merged and rebranded as ANA Wings.




History



In 1953, Nakanihon Air Service (NAS) was founded near Nagoya Airport (now Nagoya Airfield). Its major shareholders included Nagoya Railroad and ANA. Its core business was general aviation, including scenic and charter flights, aerial photography and helicopter services. It still operates as a general aviation company.
Nakanihon Airlines was founded on May 12, 1988. It was headquartered in Nagoya Airport and was a joint venture between Nagoya Railroad and ANA. Commuter services began operations on 23 April 1991.
On February 17, 2005, NAL was renamed to the current name and was relocated to Chubu Centrair International Airport. The flight schedules were amended for convenience of domestic and international flight changeover there. These moves were made for ANA's wish to feed international flights from Centrair operated by ANA and its Star Alliance partners.
