Japan Transocean Air

...I have not had the pleasure of travelling on Japan Airlines for quite a while. However, my memories of their service which, "captivates the essense of the East" is still with me. They are quietly efficient. THe air craft are in excellent condition. The crew were always attentive without being intrusive. Transfers and ground handling was excellent. It is not a cheap airline to travel on but the money spent is well worth it. The food was of a very high standard and was presented beautifully. The flight was very smoothe. Take off and landing accomplished without any discomfort in some pretty rough weather. Highly recommended.... Read review

On the whole a very good airline very friendly I will most certainly use them again. The only downside was the film, it was Ronin which I was desperate to see, no good dubbed in French with Japanese sub-titles.Worth travelling just for the Parisian smile!!... Read review

I went for the chauffeur transfer and a car and driver arrived at my home, transported me straight to the check in at terminal 4 with the minimum of fuss. All the check in staff were polite and courteous. The place was modern, with the latest in flight entertainment systems. There is a choise of Japanese or Western food, both of which are excellent and well presented. The flight attendants are attentive but not overly so - they will leave you alone if you don't want...
