June 5 (Reuters) - Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA) wants to introduce short-haul and medium-haul aircraft to its fleet by 2030, especially the Boeing 787, CEO Shinichi Inoue told reporters on the sidelines of an aviation conference in Istanbul on Monday.

The airline wants to have more than 100 Boeing 787 aircraft by 2030, he said.

ANA is still not operating the number of aircraft it did pre-COVID but expects to get to that level by 2025 and exceed that number by 2030, Inoue added.

He said he expects to launch ANA's international low-cost carrier Air Japan by spring 2024. (Reporting by Aditi Shah; editing by Jason Neely)
