NH8549 and NH11 (ORD-NRT) on 25/2/2021
Does anyone know what kind of flight NH8549 (ORD-NRT) is?
It has been operating daily in addition to the published daily NH11, which means there appear to be two revenue flights between NRT and ORD -- one departing late morning (NH11) and the second, late afternoon (NH8549).
If so, why isn't NH8549 published on ANA's Covid operations schedule online?

But UA isn't operating any flights on their metal ORD-NRT now -- at least, that's what their online schedule indicates. Only NH and JL are.
There was an incident last month involving a NH8549 flight on NH metal:

Thanks AlwaysAisle. Thought NH would have used cargo planes instead of passenger ones.
Also, it seems NH has changed the flight numbers for their cargo flights in March for the same route, which is unusual.

Sorry, OP. My mistake.
Found some pics of an ANA passenger aircraft used for a cargo flight.
