Japan Airlines JAL Reviews

What a shocking title, sorry about that. Recently I was looking for some flights to head off to Japan to treat my girlfriend and decided to spend some airline miles to get there. The best availability for us was to fly with JAL and using miles allowed us to fly in business class for practically free, otherwise we'd have been sitting in ...  Read the complete review

I recently had a return flight to Australia with JAL. My first flight without my parents and also my longest flight. My boyfriend and I sat in economy seats - however, the seats were surprisingly roomy and comfortable. The on-flight entertainment system (magic III) was fantastic, it kept me amused literally for hours. It had hundreds of games ...  Read the complete review

General service on Japan Airlines (JAL) is good. There is generally a choice of western or japanese food and the food is pretty good. Seats are also quite roomy with plenty of legroom. The inflight entertainment is reasonable with a range of Japanese and English films and music. The major problem is supply of soft drinks - ...  Read the complete review

JAL has everything going for it. When there are so many options for long haul travel, price soon becomes less important becuase in the end most airlines charge about the same. That said, JAL have always been the cheapest for flights from London to Sydney that I have found. The kind of things which I don't think are considered often include ...  Read the complete review

There are several options for travel between the UK and Japan. For lower prices (usually), or the convenience of travelling from an airport outside of London, it is often best to use European carriers connecting in hub airports on the continent. If Heathrow is in easy reach, however, flying direct is the easist mode. It is possible to fly non-stop ...  Read the complete review

Now I don't know about you but I'm pretty damned picky about the airline that I choose whether I'm flying for thirty minutes or thirty hours. So when I decided to do a working holiday in the UK and brave the unimaginable pain of a two day flight I began to explore my options. Like any normal twenty year old I wasn't ...  Read the complete review

I flew JAL from Sydney to London and it was the best flight I ever experienced. To start it all of the price was only beaten by Garuda - but then I'd rather do the journey by rowing boat than to fly with them! Since JAL did not have a direct flight to London we got a free nights accomodation at their own Tokyo Nikko hotel (4-star) ...  Read the complete review

We flew JAL from Sydney to London last year. The fare was very competitive (flights are more expensive from Aus in general), and we got to stay in Japan. However, the flight was very long and tiring, and the stay in Japan was very confusing for 2 confused non-Japanese speaking tourists. We got off the plane in Narita after around 10 hours ...  Read the complete review

Flying JAL to Australia has REALLY good points, and also, some unfortunately bad ones! The flight itself is as good as a flight can be! The stewards are attentive and friendly, there is usually a choice of foods (Western or Japanese style), and the entertainment is fair (or great if you're fortunate enough to have a plane with MAGIC 1 or 2 ...  Read the complete review

It may not sound the most likely choice, but Japan Air is an excellent way to get cheaply to Australia and New Zealand, provided you don't mind changing planes in Japan. On the way home, the flights do not connect properly, so they put you up (free) in a 4 star hotel in Tokyo for the night! Where is the best place to buy tickets on ...  Read the complete review
