Stand Speak Rise Up! is an initiative founded in 2019 by Her Royal Highness, the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, Maria Teresa, to combat sexual violence against women and girls in fragile environments such as war zones and conflict regions. The design is very similar on the two sides of the fuselage and shows fragmented female faces. LX-LGE had orange titles in 2020-21 to support the same cause.

The ANA Group established the slogan "ANA Future Promise" in June 2021 in order to promote the ESG (Environment, Society, Corporate Governance) management of its medium-term management strategy. The 789 had Nikon's "Riblet Film" (a sort of shark skin film) applied on top of the paint for testing purposes. The two sides are different. The -9 serves international routes while the -8 will sly domestic sectors. An ANA Wings Dash 8 appeared in the same scheme in late 2023.
