JAL will introduce a Boeing 787-8 aircraft with domestic specifications on the Haneda-Ishigaki route in August, offering a different kind of service under the theme, “One More Relaxing Experience on Japan’s Longest Route.
During the summer vacation period from August 1 to 31, two daily round-trip flights between Haneda and Ishigaki (JL971/972/973/974) will be operated by a Boeing 787-8 aircraft with domestic specifications, offering service with 6 first class seats, 58 class J seats and 227 regular seats (total 291 seats).
For routes normally served by 737-800s and 767-300ERs, there is in-flight Wi-Fi but no personal monitor, and passengers usually enjoy in-flight content on their own devices (smartphones/tablets, etc.), but the domestic 787-8 aircraft is equipped with in-flight Wi-Fi, AC outlets and USB charging ports, as well as personal monitors (15.6″ in First, 11.6″ in Class J, 10” in Class J) in all seats. However, the domestic 787-8 aircraft is equipped with in-flight Wi-Fi, AC outlets and USB charging ports, as well as personal monitors (15.6 inches in First, 11.6 inches in Class J, and 10 inches in standard seats) in all seats.
This is an attempt to enhance the summer vacation season by offering the latest domestic flight seats and services, including first class, on the longest domestic route in Japan, which takes approximately three hours, from the round trip.
In addition, JAL will offer “Panna Cotta & Cherry” Haagen-Dazs ice cream, a JAL in-flight exclusive, in First Class and Class J, and “Buttermilk Cake Caramel” by Butters, a sweets brand, in regular seats, and JAL original USB charging cables (USB Type-C/Lightning compatible) will be distributed to all class passengers.
Seiya Enomoto, chief of the Haneda-Hokkaido/Tourism Route Group, Revenue Management Promotion Department, Solution Sales Division, JAL, which planned the introduction of the 787-8 and a series of services, explains that this initiative itself is “an appeal to introduce the 787-8 on the Ishigaki route only during summer vacation, We hope that passengers will enjoy the longest one-way route in Japan, which takes only three hours each way,” he said.
JAL in-flight limited flavor Haagen-Dazs is a familiar sweet that is served with in-flight meals when boarding JAL’s international flights, and a round-trip taste of it could easily make you feel like you are traveling overseas. Incidentally, Butters’ Buttermilk Cake Caramel is a new product that was just released in a square type on April 10 after a review of its shape.
