Tokyo Haneda to transport was so bad too short time . and find out way to the gate was so bad. I almost missed flight. because confused. They need more great way tell us how to get there details
Although the flight was delayed because of the equipment came in late, I still give them excellent service ..good food selection and in flight entertainment were sufficient.. I will continue to fly with them
Staff was rude and loud. No respect for customers unlike the Starflyer Osaka to Haneda sector where service was outstanding. What a stark difference. Maybe United should learn from ANA how to do customer service.
we were in premium economy, but we both got middle seats and had to sit separately. i could have avoided this by trying to obtain seats sooner, but i tried 3 times and gave up. ANA's technology is not friendly for newcomers. no, check that---I think it is nigh impossible. not sure we are coming back. ana can do better to provide a front end that's friendly to users in both US and Japan.
Flight was diverted to Osaka due to engine problems then arrived at a different airport 6 hours late. We were so tired. ANA did the best they could.
The boarding process, food is one of the best, seats are roomier with better leg room.. the attendants are nice and accommodating…
Great as can be expected with a 10 hour flight over the Pacific. Great movie selection of new releases that hadn’t hit streaming yet. And despite the bad rep, I actually like the airplane good.
One of the best business class seats I’ve had. The lie flat seats made it comfortable to endure a 12 hour flight. Service was excellent and food was great.
Flight was on an ANA flight not air Japan. They did most excellent. Again the flight had excellent legroom for someone that is over 6 foot tall and the staff was very very nice. The only issue you may run into is that the person sitting next to you, may not be able to speak the same language as you.
The crew was excellent. The flight was delayed for 20 to 25 minutes. We did arrive a bit later than expected. The AC could have been better.
Underpricer is a terrible third party service that couldn’t change three letters on my boarding pass in time to make a flight. It cost me tons of money to have to buy a new ticket with JAL. I’m extremely let down with Kayak using such a sketchy company with horrific customer service.
Check in procedure is harder than with other airlines, infotainment system is outdated
I liked- timely took the take off I disliked- food for ANML was not served even after request, ASVML was really bad, the cleanliness of seats were not up to satisfactory level and I had to use my own sanitizer. Even basic sanitizer packs were not served, cabin crew could be more friendly as I noticed their behavior against other fellow passangers who were not speaking English well.
It was okay, short flight so nothing much to comment.
The crew was attentive and provided everything I needed. The business class food was excellent.
Fantastic flight company. A higher standard than any American airline company for sure.
Business class lie flat seat is the best and easiest to operate 👍👍
My seat had zero leg room. I thought I was flying Japan Airlines, a company I picked based solely on the legroom... When I got to the airport on my first flight, they informed me that I was in fact flying J.A.L VIA American Airlines... What a bait and switch. I will never fly AA on an international flight ever again.
Excellent flight. Check in experience was a breeze. Smooth and on time flight. Friendly and attentive attendants. Premium economy seating was very spacious. The lounges in both SEATAC and Narita were first rate. The only negative was the inflight food and entertainment options, which were limited, and Wi-Fi was not working. We would definitely fly JAL again.
My luggage is missing and waiting to hear back about it. 3 of my 6 checked bags didn’t make it to DFW.
The only two things to like were the price and the actual flight crew. Other than that, there is nothing positive to report above making it to my destination safely, yet later than scheduled or reported by the system. The Spring website doesn't work. I was repeatedly advised to check in online. That's impossible. None of the web functions work. I couldn't check in, pick a seat, purchase checked baggage. The phone numbers don't work. I tried every number I could find and was never able to even connect. I tried calling from my US phone and from my wife's Chinese phone. So I knew I would have to pay whatever they said for my baggage. On arrival to the airport, (HRB international terminal is a mess and also poorly run), the staff charged over $150 usd for my luggage. The luggage requirements on the web site are confusing and not close at all to industry standards. They blur the line between "Spring Air" and "Spring Japan". Kayak lists it as Spring Japan, the web site only delineates between Spring Air Domestic, Spring Air International, and Spring Japan, but doesn't make clear whether an international flight to Japan would be on Spring Japan. After checking the 1 suitcase, which took a long time for the attendant to even figure out how to do, I was told later that my carry on was too much and then there was a communication problem and I finally told them (interpreted through my Chinese wife) that I didn't mind paying for 2 bags, but I had to rearrange because I had batteries in the carry on which arent allowed to be checked. That requires the attendant to refund my first payment and te-cjexk both suitcases. She so forgot to give me the bag ticket and came to find me later. I was then motioned to go upstairs to the security screening without my wife accompanying to help translate. Then while about to be frisked, the attendant came to ask me to look inside one of the suitcases. So I went back to the check in a 3rd time to literally show them a flashlight in my suitcase. After all that, I made the tedious path through screening, & immigration. The gate wasarked for my flight. But when boarding time passes, nothing happened. None of the announcements were in English. At some point, they announced something and half the people near that gate got in line, but it wasn't moving. Some people were eventually going up and asking. I did and it turns out there was another flight to Korea link g up at the same gate, unmarked by the board. So I had to guess when that line was finished and my tokyo ight boarding finally started. My flight was scheduled to depart at 10:35am. The line for the boarding didnt even occur until 10:49am. But the Kayak app was reporting the flight as only 10 minutes late. We probably took off at 11:30am or so. I don't believe the plane wasn't ready. They were just having difficulty organizing the crowds into the trams that transport the passengers to the tarmac. The flight was mainly done because it seemed to only be about half booked. So there were many empty seats which helped. But then I find out that the flight crew will only accept Chinese or Japanese CASH for food, beverages, and snacks...even WATER. If I had known prior, my wife had Yuan cash but it is never used in China so I didn't have any. This airline is horrible and I should have paid for a better flight but it was the only one that got my plans very well. My wife later told me that it was well known to be a poorly run airline, but she didn't realize that's who I booked. I didn't interact with the crew much, so nothing to complain about there. The check in staff were nice, but somewhat incompetent. Never again.
