Press Release

During the month of July 2020, a series of historic storms hit the southern region of Japan and the damages have been extensive, including the destruction of homes, widespread power and water outage, and the loss of precious lives.  The JAL Group would like to send our sincere condolences to all who have lost loved ones during this difficult time. In order to support the affected regions, the JAL Group announced plans to transport relief goods and make monetary donations collected through the JAL Mileage Bank program and the company`s employees. Details will be announced through the company`s corporate website.

Since the government of Japan lifted domestic travel restrictions on June 19, a recovery of approximately 35% in travel demand has been seen on the carrier`s domestic network. Looking ahead at the month of August, a recovery of 70% is expected for the JAL Group. As a result, Japan Airlines today announced an updated domestic network plan for the month of August, confirming that 90% of the carrier`s scheduled flights will be in operation.

Key measures against COVID-19 have since been implemented to provide our customers with a safe and secure travel experience. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience, but would like to ask for our customer`s understanding during this unprecedented time.
