BRAND-NEW Japan Airlines A350- 1000 in ALL 4 Classes - First Class, Business, Premium, Economy

[@ukdavepianoman]

This video was pluffy. Across all classes it looked very good. First - truly amazing. Economy food looked some of the best I've seen (out of 80 airlines). Great to have Lauren along - would love her to do a business/First review. There's always a bit of a random element with call-bell challenges.

I thought Nicky was flying first too much, so I looked up how often he flew First, Business, Premium, and Economy in all the comparison videos. Here's what I got: First-7, Buisness-10, Premium Economy-4, Economy-13. If you group together Premium Economy and Economy and then First and Business, its equal at 17-17. So he's not flying first/business all the time. There must be some recency bias going on because I definitely felt like he was flying first/business more often than not, but the numbers don't lie. Overall, he's flying a very balanced amount and I stand corrected!

[@aquagamer1212]

[@mocanlagunas]

If you're flying Premium Economy you have access to the lounge (or at least that's the way it was in December...) but that sushi outside looked great!

[@sharynmillar8810]

Haven't tried the A350 yet but had 2 flights with JAL in April from Honolulu to Sydney via Tokyo. Booked premium economy for both which gave us lounge access at Honolulu and Haneda. On checking in at Honolulu we were given a free upgrade to business on the overnight flight from Tokyo to Sydney. The lounge at Honolulu was OK and the flight itself in premium economy on the 787-9 was great as was the service. The lounge at Haneda was also great for the 3.5 hours we spent in it before boarding the flight to Sydney on the 777-300. Again excellent service and food. I can't fault any of it and would happily fly with them again.

[@EpicThe112]

I agree with you how about a 3-4-3 Philippine Airlines Airbus A350-1000. Sadly when you ask Japanese Hong kongers South Koreans Taiwanese and Singaporeans they know that Philippine Airlines is no match for what they have. Meaning a downgrade from Japan Airlines business class to Philippine Airlines Mabuhay class. I've done it before and from what I can say the East Asian airlines that are on the top beat PR at all times

[@grownsimba8120]

When I was flying First Class out of Haneda, I couldn't figure out where the designated First Class check-in was. So I just went to a random kiosk and printed my ticket, no big deal. Then I go ask a random attendant where should I go to check my bag as every counter has a designation, but I still don't see First for some reason. Morning brain maybe. After I showed them my ticket, it was pretty funny. As if they couldn't believe I would print it myself since I was flying first. Another person came over and took my check-in for me and the other guided me into the security screening area while asking if I needed anything. It was a great experience on the ground. Even more so on the flight between the food and the flight attendants. Japan Airlines' offerings are awesome.

Flew in J to NYC in April. Did Liam not get the USB-C cable in his amenity kit? Definitely the most useful thing in the kit as we didn't have to rummage through our luggage for our own. Also.... firmly believe the speakers in the headrest are a gimmick. I tried it for a short while but couldn't get anywhere near good sound so went back to the headphones which are Sony and quite good. That said... We were in the middle bulkhead seats and they were awesome. Had the best sleep with so much space.

I recently flew Premium from Tokyo to LA and felt it wasn’t worth the extra money. While the flight crew were absolutely amazing, the aisle seat I had in the bulkhead didn’t have a working footrest. It also had one of those pull out from the armrest video screens that was broken. Fortunately the flight wasn’t full so I was able to move. Then there were issues with the entertainment system overall and the new seat I was in didn’t recline. I was moved a 3rd time and finally everything was functioning properly. The food was good, not great. I actually didn’t think the seat was that comfortable. Also the WiFi wasn’t working. If not for the excellent cabin crew, I would have rated my flight quite low. I expected a lot more from JAL.

[@krislokki7355]

[@l3v1ckUK]

Premium economy always seems to have a low call bell response rate on most airlines (it's terrible on BA). I think it's because there's no cabin crew based in that class. Economy has crew at the back that can easily see the economy call bell lights. Business has the same at the front. Premium economy doesn't have crew there by default.

For a long time, as the price of Chanel increased, I no longer thought I could afford it. I think I'll be happy that I have the kislux as my travel bag that I don't have to take care of. By the way, I'm sure no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the comparison.

[@ryanshannon6963]

We did this from HND > DFW and it was just fine. Significantly better than Economy, but not quite as comfortable as J class. I have a few J class flights under my belt (long-haul lie-flats), but I have no hesitation choosing this flight and seat again. In fact, you can usually find RT from SE Asia to US with JAL Premium Economy for about $2000, which is worth the $800 or so surcharge for the typical economy flight, in my opinion. Going the other way from US to SE Asia it's like nearly $3k, which is ridiculous.

[@ryanshannon6963]

We didn't fly the 1000, but 787 Premium Economy and it was great! What the lady was saying is characteristic of the "shell" seating that JAL and Air France have for their premium economy. The seat resides in a very large shell (which is why there's so much legroom for everyone all the time). When you "recline", the seat you sit on actually slides forward a bit. They have a calf rest and foot rest. With the calf rest it's pretty good. I'm 6' (about 183cm) and I slept well in it. Some people like it, others don't. Wife and I both liked it (she's short. Around 5'3") but you may not. The advantage of this design is that the person in front doesn't interfere with you at all when you recline. The food is great, the seat is comfortable, and the lounge access was very nice.Their premium economy is actually very near business lite.
