Japan Airlines Questions

Flying business class JAL from Melbourne to London, If I have done web checkin can I checkin my bags 5 hours before the flight departure time?

Jud8y

We always fly JAL. This time to London. There used to be a free stopover at their hotel in Narita. Does this still happen?

Jud, We have not travelled this root with JAL.

Do the checked bags go straight to destination if my stopover in Narita is 18hrs?

Yes, check in luggage goes straight to final destination.

Heard that Sydney-Narita-Sydney Japan airlines is still using old 777-200 plane instead of the newer 777-300 (or 787).

Heard the old plane is pain, with tighter legroom, stuffy, etc. is it true?

Hi Jeremey,

Can't really answer that question, as when I flew that route, it was on a Boeing 747. Happy travelling.

I heard that the air ventilation and aircon is stuffy, hot and air not enough, is it true?

It is over 5 years since I flew JAL from Brisbane to London return, with an overnight stop at Narita, and I never found the planes to be stuffy or overheated. I found the cabin crew efficient and eager to please, and would certainly fly with JAL again. But st that was a few years ago, things might have changed since then.
