This Airline Just Made It Easier to Connect Across Japan with Free Domestic Connecting Flights
16.09.2024 - 22:26 / travelandleisure.com
Japan Airlines has rolled out complimentary domestic flights for international passengers, making it easier to travel to the country’s diverse prefectures.
The carrier will offer complimentary domestic flights to any destination within Japan when travelers book an international flight to the country, according to JAL. To take advantage, the domestic connection must be on the same reservation as the international flight.
“Explore Japan's domestic cities with Japan Airlines' extensive domestic network, serving 64 airports and 133 routes (including codeshare flights) within Japan,” JAL wrote about the offer. “There is so much more to discover in Japan!”
The free domestic flights are available to travelers from several countries, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, Thailand, and beyond, with plans to extend it to other nations later in September.
Travelers from the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and China, however, must pay a $100 stopover fee if they stay in their first destination in Japan for more than 24 hours.
The free domestic connections also come with free checked luggage: passengers in economy and premium economy can check up to two bags weighing up to 50 pounds each, and passengers in first class or business class can check up to three bags weighing up to 70 pounds each.
JAL, which is part of the Oneworld Alliance along with American Airlines and Alaska Airlines, was named one of the best international carriers in the world by Travel + Leisure readers this year. The airline is also known for having one of the most luxurious economy seats with plenty of room and delicious perks like Japanese Soba noodles and sake on hand.
Beyond flying, travelers can also connect to major cities in Japan through its extensive and efficient high-speed bullet trains, which criss-cross the country at speeds of more than 200 mph. Travelers can purchase rail passes in increments of seven, 14, or 21 days.

This Private Helicopter Tour Is the Most Luxurious Way to Enjoy Japan's Cherry Blossom Season
Mount Yoshino in the Nara Prefecture is one of Japan’s most popular spots for cherry blossom (sakura) viewing. There’s a wide range of varieties and approximately 30,000 cherry trees and according to Japan Travel, they were planted over 1300 years ago. In spring, the area gets extremely busy with people traveling to see the light pink to white flowers with a backdrop of the region’s stunning natural landscape peppered with historic temples, hillside towns, and must-visit cities. This other-worldly natural phenomenon is so famous that people plan bucket-list vacations to Japan during the season in order to see the trees in full glory. But if you don’t like the idea of walking through crowds of people on cramped paths, you might want to consider a more luxurious way to enjoy the sakura and book a helicopter flight with AIROS Skyview. Matador Network reached out to AIROS Skyview to chat about the various routes they offer and how you can tailor-make your own cherry blossom voyage to take in the collage of colors from the sky.
