Can’t wait to hear about your experience on ANA. When I lived in NYC I flew ANA exclusively to Asia, and it was great especially on their new, upgraded Business and First products. They’re old business product which can still be found on the 787 is great too. Now I’m on the west coast I’ve switched to One World because I fly Alaska a lot and haven’t tried JAL yet. I’m looking forward to flying it on my next trip to Japan. Thanks for the preview.

Enjoyed your video, succinct and to the point with nice emphasis on food presentation. Laughed at your comment on Japanese over doing the peppers 😄😄 I can attest peppers are not a stable of Japanese food. But since their culture is into aesthetics and presentation, the flight attendants must've gone over on the red peppers, Ha Ha !

I just discovered the The Ones series and am enjoying it. Japan Airlines used to operate round the world flights in late 1960's to early 19070's. The westbound flight was JL1 and the eastbound flights was JL2. The JL1 today for SFO-HND is what's left of it. I remember there was another JL1 from NRT-HKG back in early 1980's, which I assume to be the continuation of the JL1 SFO-NRT flight.

@@PatrickSheaAviation Wikipedia had more info. San Francisco was JAL's first international destination via HNL in 1954 on DC-6; therefore, the JL1/2 designation for the SFO - TYO route stuck. In 1967, they negotiated the fifth freedom rights with the US to fly transatlantic and operated TYO-SFO-JFK-LHR and onto Paris, Frankfurt, Rome, Cairo, Tehran, New Delhi, Bangkok, Hong Kong and back to Tokyo. It was the third airline to fly RTW after Pan Am and BOAC. It must have been quite a journey on the DC-8.

Beats that Zip Air trip you did recently to SJC. I agree with you on the 2-2-2 layout...I'm definitely not a fan, even if the window seat has direct aisle access. 1-2-1 is the way to go.

Flown JAL business many times to Tokyo. I found the staggered layout, the seats a bit narrow and space between the next seat getting to the aisle. Otherwise it was a pleasant trip.

Yea group one is for OneWorld emeralds and the JAL equivalent. I love your work. Thank you creating these. Did you know they have mattress pads too? They are quite nice. Their entertainment isn’t great. I was laughing watching your video because when I flew JAL in September and November last year they played some of the same movies.

I didn’t know about the mattress pads. I’m curious why the crew didn’t mention anything when I was struggling to make the bed. Maybe next time I’ll give them a try. I also found the entertainment selection odd, so it’s worrisome to know it’s been that way for a while. Glad you liked the video! Thank you!

SEA is my home airport where both ANA and JAL serve Tokyo-NRT. Beginning 26 March 23, ANA will commence Tokyo-HND and discontinue Tokyo-NRT. As a business traveler, I choose the carrier that has availability. I enjoy the flight attendants authenticity of both carriers. By this I mean flight attendants do not look at passengers and automatically speak english based on outward appearance of each passenger. It's been my experience that flight attendants speak japanese and pause for a response by the passenger. By doing so, the passenger decides the preferred language of communication. Where overall service and brand are concerned, both carriers are equally superior. No complaints. I do enjoy the layout of JAL's business class. And I did laugh at your remark that the tv is in another zip code. ANA may be my first choice beginning 26 March 23 because HND is closer to downtown Tokyo, but I am unopposed to JAL and NRT.

I loved flying ANA, but it doesn’t appear that they’ve been focusing on connecting flights to the rest of Asia (at least from the U.S.) as much as JAL has. A lot of flights to Haneda now and still require an overnight. I think they may still be normalizing their operations after the pandemic. For that reason I’ll miss my diamond status on ANA. Haven’t flown JAL, but I think ANA hard and soft products in the air and on land may be a tad better based on a lot of videos I’ve watched.

You should have MNL bound passengers on JL1/2 via HND this is their alternative option to PR105/115. Oneworld Alliance wise JL is 5 Star Skytrax rated like partners CX and QR. Same thing with competitor Star Alliance NH being 5 star like OZ BR and SQ. Both JL and NH beat AA and UA in terms of Service. I'm wondering if you used AA Advantage here or not? Since Saphire tier gives you access to JL lounges

San Jose is ANA too. TBF SFO isn't really a hub for any oneworld carrier so them operating their own lounge here should be a bonus in itself. Definitely fly into Haneda if your end destination is Tokyo.

@@PatrickSheaAviation they have been operating domestic ones irregularly(not sure about the flight number back then) but still their first 001 was bound for SF via Honolulu. Having 001 destination usally means that a country’s economy is largely dependent on the country, at which the destination is located, for those in East Asia, unlike those with longer history of aviation such as US, GB, Germany.

They do have a second style of business class that resembles the more normal “Herringbone” style setup. This isn’t for everyone, but I do prefer it over the 2-2-2 setup that you see in most airlines, considering it has some privacy (although they sacrifice seat width)

The JAL business class seats resemble those capsule hotel rooms; it looks entirely claustrophobic. I wish you had commented on the relative space and shown your body inserted into that narrow looking seat. Really, based on this video alone, I can't see choosing JAL when there are so many better business class options. The ANA business class seat can fit two people side-by-side. I like JAL's premium economy seat, but I just can't see paying more for this coffin-like arrangement.
