Mar 7th, 2010 at 9:00AM: Where is a flight attendant uniform synonymous with high-touch service? Well, you may encounter JAL duds in a Japanese sex club. Your hostess may not keep it on long, but you'll be happy to know that your safety is her first priority, whether you're dressed or not. When JAL fell into bankruptcy, the risk that flight attendant uniforms would fall into the wrong hands skyrocketed.

Japanese sex clubs: Where flight attendant uniforms mean service
Mar 7th, 2010 at 9:00AM: Where is a flight attendant uniform synonymous with high-touch service? Well, you may encounter JAL duds in a Japanese sex club. Your hostess may not keep it on long, but you'll be happy to know that your safety is her first priority, whether you're dressed or not. When JAL fell into bankruptcy, the risk that flight attendant uniforms would fall into the wrong hands skyrocketed.
It seems that ...Relationship with JAL: Delta or American?
Sep 13th, 2009 at 3:00PM: Fliers in the United States may get more options when traveling to Japan, but it's unsure which airline will be the one to deliver. Both Delta and American are said to be in talks with Japan Airlines, and the winner is likely to have greater access to the largest travel market in Asia. Delta's deal is reported to be worth several hundred million dollars, while the American Airlines offer is said ...Copilot peeing in public cancels JAL flight from Honolulu
Jul 2nd, 2009 at 4:30PM: Of all the reasons to have your flight canceled, I'm pretty sure this one is high on the "no frikkin way!" list. The copilot of JAL flight 75 from Honolulu to Narita was arrested by local police for urinating in a park. The copilot had consumed a bottle of wine and 5 bottles of beer, when the urge "to go" was clearly greater than the urge to find an appropriate place to relive himself. When a ...Why you don't stand near the jet engine on the tarmac
May 12th, 2009 at 9:00AM: Ever look out the side of your airplane while on the ground and see those red semicircles painted around the jet engine? Those are there for a reason. If the engine powers up quickly and someone is nearby, someone (or something) could easily get sucked in. Those red regions are the "no walk" zone. But that's what happened at Los Angeles International Airport yesterday when a Japan Airlines 747 was ...
Sarah Palin intervenes on behalf of Japan Airlines
Dec 27th, 2008 at 10:30AM: Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, fresh from her 15 minutes of election fame, is using her pull to help save some sectors of her state's travel industry.
Specifically, Palin recently intervened on behalf of Japan Airlines, asking the US Dept. of Homeland Security to resume customs checks on winter flights from Japan to Fairbanks. Customs had said it did not have enough staff in Fairbanks to maintain a ...JAL's CEO takes bus to work and eats at the cafeteria (even when the press aren't following him)
Dec 11th, 2008 at 2:00PM: Every couple of days here in Minneapolis, Northwest CEO Doug Steenland is on the television telling the thousands on Northwest employees living in the Twin Cities not to worry about losing their jobs after the merger with Delta is completed. Judging by the number of strikes and employee complaints NW has experienced over the past few years, I'd say no one takes him too seriously. If you you headed ...Airplane Exercises You Can Try at Home
Mar 8th, 2007 at 9:32AM: One of the best plane trips we took when our daughter was small was a Japan Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Narita, Japan. Instead of letting you figure out what to do to amuse yourselves for the hours on end it takes to get across the Pacific, they help you out. We played Sky Bingo as part of the entertainment. Whoever wanted to play got a Bingo card and the numbers were shown on the big ...
Double Tall Skim Catpooccino To Go
Oct 10th, 2006 at 9:00AM: If you're a coffee lover, maybe you'll want to make a special flight on Japan Airlines to buy "the rarest coffee in the world": civet coffee. But this specialty brew is sold only in business class, to the tune of $600 for 100 grams.
You're not going to find this in any Starbucks. Your other options for getting the coffee are limited: if you're not heading to Japan, a single coffee shop ...
