Established in August of 2006, CREW is the joint venture of All Nippon Airways, The Sojitz Corporation of Japan, and Hawaii Aviation Contract Services of Honolulu.
CREW is the number one supplier of pilots to Air Japan, with 75 years of combined core staff expertise in contract management and consulting services to Asia’s leading carriers
CREW’s corporate philosophy emphasizes pilot safety, personal success, and quality of life. When issues arise, maintaining the integrity of the pilot profession is our absolute priority. When guided by this philosophy, every business decision is deliberate and leads to proven success. We are very fortunate to have the respect of so many in our industry, granting us the freedom to operate independently, not just as an airline subsidiary.
Our responsibility goes beyond simply connecting talented pilots to airlines. We advise and advocate for the best methods to retain, promote, and reward our pilots.
In our newest venture, we’ve established a business in contracting cabin attendants for ANA through our subsidiary company, CREW Asia Ltd. Our cabin attendants are recruited in Thailand and based in Bangkok. We are 64 strong and rising, with continuous recruitment for the foreseeable future. As with our pilot program, we approach our cabin attendant business by seeing everything from the employee’s point of view. Business success is achieved through happy and successful employees, a proven method for us that has worked for years.
Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about flight contracts or flying in Japan.
