Japan Airlines in 2 classes | Business vs Economy | JL18 | Tokyo to Vancouver

[@suncheeserailway]

Apparently 1700 r/t seems a bit high in 2023 for JAL/ANA on the YVR-Tokyo route; could be wrong though. Having a hard time accepting it’s north of 2000 nowadays assuming SGD=CAD.

In actual fact, the SGD 1,700 r/t ticket that I paid for was between Singapore and Vancouver with a stop in Tokyo. Sorry if I wasn't clear in the video. But yes, I've heard that a r/t flight between Asia and North America (particularly Vancouver) on Japanese airlines are more expensive than before, which got my parents to look for other Asian airlines.

JL18 must have had an aircraft change that day cos JL18/17 to YVR is only ever served by the horrible B767-300ER. I really wish JL would put a 787 permenantly on this route.

[@elaoroekutai]

Yeah, I wish so too.

it is not suggested to take any JAL economy class, the meal is so bad....if you have money other airlines business class are even much better. Nowadays JAL is no more a traditional JAL, so leave it alone, so disappointed
