Introduction


Hi,This is my first post. So I will introduce myself.

I'm Japanese AVgeek.I often travel by LCC or Regional airlines. I had never boarded Business class,But I often got on small aircraft(ATR,DHC6,SAAB).
I prefer Propeller to Jet.So Please Enjoy my muddy article.

Domestic


Business class is often very expensive for me.But JAL provides great seats for cheap traveler. It's called Class J.
Class J is premium economy for domestic market.But Class J cost only 1000YEN($9) all over the domestic route.So It's great seat for such a poor traveler like me!!

I arrived at airport 2 hour before flight. In NGO,There are a lot of shopping district and spectacular view of open-air deck,So I can easily spend 2 hours in this airport.
I'm JAL Credit card holder,So I don't need print boarding pass. I only take credit card and scan it at the gate and security check.photo dscf7034photo dscf7029photo dscf7032
It's called "Touch & Go service". This name is odd for me because "Touch & Go" mean aircraft landing technique to avoid danger. But It's different meaning for JAL customer.

When I arrived at gate 6,Boarding was already started.I scan my credit card in this machine.It looks like automatic gates in the train station.

Aircraft was B737-800,most famous commercial jet in the world. I was welcomed by a senior manager and beautiful color light.
Class J seat is bigger and wider than economy. Legroom is adequate.
It equipped Leg rest,make more relax position if you do reclining.

After take off,Drink service was started.There are a lot of soft drink choice.I selected Apple juice,But there are no snack service.

Most amazing feature of JAL domestic flight is free wifi. All passenger can access free internet service.Speed was decent,I can watch Youtube without stopping.
But speed was gradually down because many passenger try to connect it.

Many business men looked tired and fell asleep.

After one and half hour ride,My ship landed CTS. I rushed to my home.

Conclusion

Class J is only 1000Yen($9).This is not business class,but You can access more comfortable seats.Personally,I think It's worth pay it.
Service was only soft drink,no alcoholic. All passenger can access free internet access and enjoy browsing(Not so fast,But Free).
If you are going to board JAL domestic route,I will recomend Class J seats !!
See you next report!!
