ANA Trading, the trading arm of All Nippon Airways, is launching a collection of exclusive Chiikawa merchandise inspired by the airline’s specially designed “Chiikawa Jet.”

The first items will go on sale from October 23, 2026, through ANA’s online store, airport shops and onboard shopping services, as well as selected Chiikawa retail outlets.

The collection features characters from the popular Japanese manga wearing ANA uniforms, with original illustrations showing them working both in the air and on the ground. The launch celebrates the introduction of the themed aircraft and gives fans access to merchandise designed specifically for the ANA collaboration.

The first collection includes character mascots, plush toys, acrylic keychains, trading can badges, stickers, clear files and a hand towel. One of the distinctive items is a ceramic mug set inspired by the paper cups served aboard the Chiikawa Jet.

Prices range from 300 yen before tax for a trading can badge to 5,000 yen before tax for the ceramic mug set. Mascots will cost 2,100 yen each, while plush toys will be priced at 2,800 yen each.

The mascots will feature eight characters: Chiikawa, Hachiware, Usagi, Momonga, Kurimanju, Rakko, Shisa and the character known as Furuhonya. Plush toys will be available in three designs featuring Chiikawa, Hachiware and Usagi.

Where and When to Buy the Collection

The first sales will begin on October 23 through ANA’s official A-style online store, its ANA Mall shop, selected ANA FESTA airport gift shops, selected ANA duty-free stores, domestic-flight shopping service ANA STORE@SKY, international-flight duty-free pre-orders, Chiikawa Market and Chiikawa Land.

International-flight onboard duty-free sales are scheduled to begin on November 1, while additional ANA FESTA airport locations are expected to start selling the products on November 4. Other airport stores and aviation-related facilities in Japan will introduce the collection from late November onward. Product availability and launch dates will vary by retailer.

Purchase limits will apply across sales channels from October 23 to 25. At ANA’s online stores, onboard domestic-flight shopping service and participating airport shops, customers will generally be limited to two items per design and one box product. Chiikawa Market and Chiikawa Land will have separate restrictions.

ANA FESTA’s B1 Floor Gift Shop at Haneda Airport Terminal 2 will also become a temporary store dedicated exclusively to the Chiikawa collaboration. The shop is scheduled to operate from October 23, 2026, through the end of March 2027, subject to change, and will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. The first three days will require advance reservations, allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

ANA Trading has also announced that it will open a dedicated online feature page for the collaboration today, October 15, ahead of the first sales. A second wave of merchandise is planned for March 2027.

Chiikawa is a manga series created by illustrator Nagano that originated on X, formerly Twitter. Its characters have expanded into merchandise, themed cafés and corporate collaborations, making the ANA collection another addition to the franchise’s commercial partnerships.

ANA also has a long-running partnership with Pokémon, which began shortly after the release of Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Green Version in Japan.
