Great to have economy + on JAL. Economy + has their own designated check in. You are also able to use their lounge which is very relaxing. There is food, desserts and drinks available as well. The seats on the plane don’t recline very much and the isle way is narrow when you need to use the restroom. The food was just ok, typical airplane food taste. The stewardesses were very nice and helpful. Two meals were provided, and the last meal was a fish sandwich. Too bad I don’t eat seafood. The smell of fish was not a welcoming odor in a confined airplane. Overall, I would recommend JAL, (LAX to Tokyo)
They moved my seat without my consent and they won’t refund the money I spent on it. I paid for a front row aisle seat and they moved me to a center seat in the last row of premium economy. They were very rude about everything and nothing like Singapore Airlines or Korean Airways which I flown before.
Communication about delays was not very good. Crew and staff were excellent!
SAN-NRT was excellent experience with crew helping and assisting in all aspects of comfort. But NRT-BAN was not that comfortable with no blankets and pillows provided and treating it more like premier economy class. This has been the pattern I have observed where JAL uses non-trained crew, uncomfortable seats, restrooms not working, locking up window seats, business class comforts taken away on NRT-BAN route. Overall quality of service goes downhill on NRT-BAN flight. Not sure why?
I had a hard time checking in as my first and middle names lacked a space. The vendor spent a long time fixing it with the JAL. This should not have been a problem. Check in at ohare was good as Regina was very helpful and kind.
Dreamliner is an excellent aircraft. Great seats in business. Flight attendant Alex had a bored, sullen attitude in serving customers. Difficult to get his attention and very slow to respond to a simple request for water. Spoiled the experience a bit as the AA motto is “we ’re here because of you”. Attitude needs some adjustment!
The best part was the staff. They are kind and gracious and made it a good flight.
Reasonable price, great service, highly recommended. i arrived well rested!
Since I traveled on my birthday, they gave me a gift and a card. How thoughtful and caring.
The best way to travel a long intercontinental flight. Staff are kind, polite and welcoming. Passengers experience a comfortable low stress environment, Customers feel they are well cared for by a highly trained and professional staff. I will shout from the rooftops when I get back home, "Japan Air is the way to go!"
Paid for seat assignments that did not in any way match seats received, and had to upgrade at checkin
All was great on flight to Tokyo. The ROOM setup was very comfortable. Definitely will try to do again.
It was so disappointed trip by unexpected company's fault delay. It had taken 3 hours delay for mechanical maintenance plus another 3 hours for bad weather.
12 of the 14 hours were in the dark, all during daylight. Didn’t use my light because it disturbed other people it was illuminating. 14 hours sitting upright in a cramped space was horrible.
I like the service very much. The food just okay but maybe different culture who like, who don't like.
Seats had more space than expected. No recline, that is good.
We purchased premium economy seats 9 months ago and got bumped to economy when we tried to board the plane. It was a huge fiasco while they struggled to find us seats. I tried reaching out to Kayak to see how we can get refunded for the extra money we spent on premium but have heard nothing back. It was a 14 hour flight and were disappointed that we lost our seats after selecting them 9 months ago.
Excellent. All the ticket prices have gone up so much. With only economy as the option, I thought I better pay for a good airline and I am glad I took ANA. The only thing is the long layover at Hanaeda enroute to Singapore. Any chance to bring back the service to land at Narita instead for the transit and a shorter layover will be fantastic. I am a fan of ANA.
The flight was canceled due to a mechanical problem. The rebooked flights were snot good. Many complexities. Will not use a third party booking again.
Our flight that was before this one was delayed, and I appreciate that this airline sent a very nice flight attendant to pick us up at the Chicago airport and walked us to the gate. They waited for us, so we didn't miss the flight. That was amazing and outstanding customer service! We appreciate you so much!!
Seat was comfortable and toilets kept on clean through the whole trip, I give excellent! Needs some improvement on food.
Comfortable seats but I had a hard time with the reclining pull.
Reasonable fair, good service, in sum, I am very happy!
Seating was good in the economy with plenty of leg room. The seat cushions were a little firm though, especially for such a long flight. All meals were Korean as would be expected. The food was typical airline quality. Edible, but not something you would recommend to friends. Inflight entertainment was also all Korean but Korean tv and movies are made well and you can find something to watch. Just be prepared to read subtitles. Overall it was a good flight, especially for the price.
The person in front of me was rude. He may came from some communism countries and don’t care of other people. No common manner and sense between human being.
The staff were very friendly, and the flight was comfortable. That said, there was no option to specify dietary restrictions before the flight, so you may need to bring your own food. Also, there was no wifi available for the flight, though there is an in-flight entertainment console with many Korean-language shows and movies.
The legroom was great for a 5’11” person. The 11 hour direct flight had two meal services included in the ticket price which was less than other airline’s cost without food service (Canada air)from sfo to incheon. The airline is focused towards Korean nationals with the onboard entertainment selection of Korean movies but English subtitles were available. Overall premia air is a great option to fly from the US to Korea.
Plane and service were great. The entertainment is only for Koreans. Wish there were vegetarian options for food. All in all pleasantly surprised. Economy premium was quite good.
Great airline, but there was no English entertainment (movies or shows)
One of our luggage items was damaged during our flight to Newark from Incheon. Although our email communication was not responded to, when discussing the matter with the staff at the Newark checkin before our return flight to Incheon, we were provided with a free replacement luggage item. This customer service was, overall, very satisfactory.
Tiny seat made for midgets. You can’t put a normal size human in such a tiny seat for 8 god damn hours! Hot plane, no air. Lost bags at Rome airport for 8 hours, lucky to have found them. Horrible flying experience, United Airlines should be embarrassed!
Terrible boarding - 4 flights boarded from the same gate. Chaos there; long ramps to the plane.
The couple in front of me were constantly talking over the announcement from the captain and this was annoying me.
Short. Nice quick flight, appreciated after Munich to DC leg.
The flight from Frankfurt to Pisa was cancelled and we were rebooked to route through London. The flight to London was delayed for maintenance issues and we missed our connection flight. Lufthansa automatically rebooked my wife on the next flight but I was not rebooked. I spent over an hour trying to get onto the flight. Ultimately my wife’s gate checked bag from Washington did not arrive in Pisa and remained in London. Very bad experience overall.
This was a small aircraft (relatively) and we were delayed half an hour on takeoff, which is not the airlines fault.
Flight delayed over an hour with plane on runway because of weather in an area of the country we were not in or flying to.
Flight attendant incredibly rude. Stuck her finger in my drink and didn’t even have the courtesy to apologize.
The very best airline service I have experienced. Better than domestic airlines first class and I flew Economy Plus!
United Airlines changed my flight 5 hours before I arrived at the airport. This messed up my entire day that I arrived in Japan.
We were delayed by 3 hours and the turbulence was rough, nothing younger control over
The only problem that I have is if you have questions about your flight ✈️ there's no one to communicate with when you call 📱.
The gate and flight crew were very responsive and professional. They went out of their way to make sure this senior had a good flight.
The upgraded seats on the smaller flights I guess is a toss up if you get a full meal. We paid less for the ticket on the way there and got a full meal where we got a snack and drink on the way home. The lounge was also in the other terminal too. No entertainment on the seat and no wifi on the plane.
It was a short flight so, everything went smoothly and we got to where we needed to be safely.
Loved and was pleasantly surprised by the food!! Request Lufthansa to help transiting passengers at Munich (confusion whether to go thru passport control or not).
Flight home was delayed multiple times, did not get home until 2am
I checked a bag and there was only one agent to assist all customers with any issues.
Super experience. Earlier than schedule departure and arrival. Baggage handling was very good
Plane left an hour late, I missed my connection and my bow case was never even loaded on the plane in VA. I deal with this type of nonsense everytime I fly air canada.
