It was good overall. What I liked most was the restrooms. Compared to other airlines, the restrooms seem larger and look clean. The seats also look clean. The attendants are nice, except one time during the flight. I was sitting on aisle and a man sitting window. He asked an attendant for a snack. She told him to go ahead and get some snack from the section with food storage (I am not sure how it is called). So, I had to get up to let him get out from his seat. Why she did not bring him some snacks so that I would not have to move, I do not know... I was kind of surprised how inconsiderate the attendant was.
JOKE of a company with the most Ridiculous policies. JAL is amazing, KAYAK/UNDERPRICER is the worst company I have ever dealt with, NEVER AGAIN
Flight crews are very attentive and polite. Cabin and toilets are clean. Food is above average for economy class. We missed our connecting flights because the first flight was delayed, the ground crews at Tokyo were very helpful, providing all the information and support (including cash for our train ticket) to get us to our destination. Very impressive. No wonder they are always at the top ten lists.
Excellent! So happy that the crew members were so helpful and friendly and able to understandably communicate. They’re very receptive with someone like me, with disability. I love that I did not even have to ask for luggage help like, having to place and take down my carry-on luggage in and out of the over-head compartment. Hope, help is extended to disabled passenger(s) through out class classifications they’ve bought; economy or business class it might be. As a disabled person myself, I’m truly of great appreciation of this kind of help. Means a lot !!! Thank you so very much JAL crew. You out done others on this customer service part of the trip. Please continue to do so. From now on, I’ll choose JAL as my airline whenever I have to fly to any southeast asian countries. And I will disseminate my excellent travel experience with you to others.
Food was very mediocre. Economy is pretty uncomfortable. Crew was excellent and responsive.
I was so hungry , from Boston to Tokyo, only 2 big food .
Good experience for economy transpacific. Reasonable comfortable seats. Food was not as good as I expected or had on other prior transpacific flights but likely attribute that to rising cost of supplies. Staff is courteous. Overall, very good.
Seats in "Premium Economy" were noticeably more comfortable than those in "Economy" and worth the price. My only reservation is that the foot rest did not go higher up. If it did, it would have made the seat much more comfortable.
Particularly meals were great. Service’s were excellent as usual. .
Attentive crew, great service with regular rounds of drinks and trash collecting. Only complaint is the food, which was mediocre.
Cabin Crew was excellent. They took care of everything requested. Flight was good
The ROOM was great. We would love to have it on all of our flights. LOL
Flight was good and comfortable, even for long haul economy. No complaints.
Everything was good may improve some alcohol drinks and amenities during fly
Wonderfully pleasant experience. Good meal and beverage selections. Professional air staff.
Wonderful. I love ANA airlines. It's the best so far. My first pick when I travel now.
Loved that leg room was great for economy, and food was definitely better than other American airlines, great selection of movies. My mom is happy.
I have never been a big fan of airplane meals
Seat was roomy enough . The Asian selection for a meal was good . The tortellini was not very good. Service was excellent. O
The airline sent a a very nice flight attendant to pick us up at the Chicago airport and walked us to the gate because the earlier flight was delayed. Then we didn't miss the flight. The customer service was amazing and outstanding! We appreciate the staff members so much!
I was promised by United Airline (operated by ANA) that I will be seated together with my kids as I am the only adult flying with two minors. We did not get seats together in our 11 hours flight from LA to Tokyo. When asked at the gate, ANA representative said United Airline should have informed them that there is a parent flying with two minors. He said they can’t do anything in the system as the flight is full. He ask me to ask passengers next to me and the kids if they are willing to change seats. This is ridiculous! However, I went in the flight and asked other passages but no one willing to change seats. 11 hours and we were seating separately. I was very disappointed with this. It made things super inconvenient for me.
Smooth travel. Immediate update prior flight delay so I can arrange myself properly without too rush.
It's a long flight and I would have liked better snacks between lunch and the arrival meal. It's fine to have fruit and nuts but I really don't like ramen because it's salty junk soup. I'd suggest sandwiches. They're not expensive nor are they hard to store for a long flight. The FA's had a couple of big services and they were super busy preparing, executing and then cleaning up. Then they disappeared.
The 777’s economy seat’s legroom was more tolerable than expected. I appreciate the reclining mechanism which slides the seat forward to minimize cannibalizing the space behind. The food was terrible: very salty.
Both the WIFI and entertainment did not work for 2.5h
The crew made our experience extremely bad. They were rude and didn’t have anything for kids.
Check-in and in-flight staff were better than average. The seat was a fair size but too hard and not enough padding. The cushion/pillow provided is poor (thin and seems to be disposable ,it provides no effective cushioning or support). Food was OK-ish but no choice of inflight snacks and no easy place to get drinks other than water (I could ask for juice by intruding into the staff area at the back of the plane) Entertainment was very good actually. Overall better than I expected from a US-based airline (sorry!) but compared to ANA or Singapore it was so-so. (I live in Japan so they are my comparative airlines)
The movies offered were great. Staff were very pleasant and very efficient.
The flight attendants were rude. Seemed like they didn’t want to be there. Except for one girl that was really nice. Seats are sooooo uncomfortable. They give you a piece of paper and a thin cushion for a pillow and blanket that does nothing. Airlines have gone way downhill, especially United international flights. Food was disguting. Definitely flying ANA next time.
Nothing beats ANA customer service on my opinion. Maybe because of their Japanese culture (and food). Arigatō
Very turbulent flight, no drinks, very little service, unorganized boarding, gate changed multiple times
The flight was delayed significantly. Communication during the flight was abrupt and caused some panic as we were navigating turbulence. It was also too loud and every announcement felt startling. The flight attendants did not offer any assurances and I felt unsettled most of the flight. The seats, floor and tray table was very dirty. The seat next to me was broken and the passenger sitting there was very uncomfortable. He had a spring in his back and his seat made terrible squeaking noises through the flight.
I cancelled my ticket less than 24 hours deadline but I didn’t get refunded.
It was American airlines and it was awful like usual...
Frustrated with the check-in experience. Too much 'we say, they say' going on resulting in extra fees for me and 35 minutes at the counter.
Newer Aircraft have more amenities, but the JAL flight crew and ground staff are top tier and provided the best customer experience I've ever had on a flight!
Let's give credit where due: this is JAL's flight, not American's. And nothing is going to make 12+ hours in the air truly enjoyable. That said, the cabin crew was solicitous and friendly, the Japanese food excellent. The business class seats on the 787 were a little claustrophobic in bed mode -- one felt like one was lying at the bottom of a canyon -- and seat and light controls are not conveniently placed -- but comfortable enough. Restrooms were spotless and well-stocked throughout the flight. The Business Class lounge at Narita is very comfortable and quiet -- my one caveat is that a broader selection of food, including some Western selections, would have been welcome.
Japan Airlines was one the best flying experiences I have had.
It was Japan Airlines that was excellent. I don’t know why it shows American Airlines.
Very disappointed with the food on the first leg of the trip ( from Bangkok to Japan). I had the chicken con don bleu and I must say that I had better frozen TV dinner. The crews during the flight were running around but It was hard to flag them down for any simple services. For the amount of money for the business class, I had better services and food from other economy flights that i experienced. I will never fly Japan Air Lines again. I am willing to pay extra to avoid JAL👎👎👎👎👎👎
The meal options were ok but the actual food was terrible. On my return journey, they simply said that there was no vegetarian option and somehow struggled to give me dinner and did not give me any breakfast at all which in my opinion was terrible. Not having ANY vegetarian meal was surprising and never had such an experience in the recent years.
Didnt make it on flight. Flight was delayed. Then had to get rebooked for a flight that was 8 hours later. Guess who had to wait for 8 hours at the airport?
The plane was very cramped to point there was no way not to touch person beside you and a stewardess screamed at my son when I touched her arm to get her attention to let her know she forgot to give him his dinner when she passed him and gave a dinner to passenger behind him. Very inappropriate response and She never came back to apologize and other stewardess said she was sorry “if I felt” she was inappropriate. Horrible experience and she should be reprimanded for her behavior
Everything went smoothly — on-time departure and very organized boarding. We pre-ordered vegan meals, which were fine but not especially memorable. We may have had slightly higher expectations given it was a Japanese airline. It felt like a dinner meal than a breakfast. Overall, it was a good flight experience and we would recommend it.
This flight with a lot empty place , and I have more room, feeling comfortable.
The cabin crew was professional and there were plenty of movie choices, but the food was a bit sub-standard.
The flight was delayed an hour, but not because of Air Canada. The crew was polite, professional, and competent. The food was above average for Air Canada, but just fine. The stand out for me in the 10 hour flight was the entertainment package. The best of any airline I’ve experienced so far. Looking forward to my return flight to finish some more of the shows I was watching.
Very good!👍!especially the typhoon coming, the speaking Chinese language service is excellent 👍!
Not to out myself as both a child at heart and kind of a terrible person, but the Pokémon safety video was the first time I watched an airplane safety video in like a decade. It was ADORABLE!! A great way to encourage attention from young and old alike.
Seamless! Long but the seat back entertainment kept us all busy the whole time! Meals were excellent! Crew fantastic! Very attentive!
