Podcasts about Japan Airlines

Have you ever dreamed of flying to Japan in business class—without paying out of pocket? Bilt just made that a lot easier. In this episode, I'm joined by award travel strategist Ben Komenkul to talk about the newest (and most exciting) Bilt Rewards transfer partner: Japan Airlines. This partnership opens the door to premium flights across Asia and around the world—and it's not just for those planning a trip to Tokyo. Ben and I walk through everything from low-cost regional flights and lie-flat business class options to more advanced redemptions like partner bookings with Emirates or Korean Air. We also share the biggest tips and pitfalls to know before transferring your Bilt points, including how to avoid JAL's 60-day award booking delay and why their mileage expiration policy might not work for everyone. If you've been curious about using Bilt points—or want to understand when this program can unlock premium cabin value—this is a must-listen.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/book-japan-airlines-with-bilt-rewards/ Want to shape the show?

Japan Airlines opened a new route between Narita International Airport in Chiba Prefecture, near Tokyo, and Chicago on Saturday.

Watch us on YouTube! Delta made some changes to their fare structures that are likely to lead to confusion for some travelers. Richard and Ed are weighing in on those changes. Bilt has added their 20th transfer partner. Japan Airlines is a very useful program to get to Japan and other points in Asia, but has been a difficult program to transfer points to. That changes with this new partnership! A listener shares a heartfelt story about their recovery and some very kind words for the co-hosts. Frontier has rolled out a companion pass benefit after their recent status match, which may lead to more Frontier tales! Newark airport continues to disappoint. Even with softening travel demand, Richard and Ed are recommending you avoid for now. Lastly, Ed has a poll question for viewers and listeners in regards to how many Membership Rewards points he should transfer from AMEX to Hawaiian to send to Alaska Airlines.

Well, on this episode Melanie and I are both at the mercy of our children's airline travel woes, which means we got interrupted by phone calls and texts while we were recording since we were trying to help with troubleshooting and whatnot. Besides that, though, we talk through Japan travel prep, David's best technological day, and Hazel's sassy new Pilates-esque accessories. We also learn about a Netflix show that Melanie has loved, and we share our Graduation Gift Guide for 2025. Hope you enjoy!

Vi fortsätter med temat från förra avsnittet då vi sammanstrålade med den svenske temästaren Per Oscar Brekell i Tokyo. Idag får vi bland annat en förklaring till varför det gröna teet - det som kallas för matcha - blivit så populärt. Ja faktiskt så mycket så att man från fabrikanternas sida varnar för att det är på väg att bli en bristvara i världen.Podden vill också passa på att önska särskilt våra lyssnare i Japan en glad Golden Week.Flera nationella helgdagar infaller i tät följd mellan slutet av april och början av maj. Under denna tid tar många ledigt för att resa, vara med på festivaler eller helt enkelt umgås med familj och vänner.​Årets Golden Week startade den 29 april och pågår till den 6 maj. Helgdagarna är dom här:​29 april – Shōwa-dagen (Shōwa no Hi): Till minne av kejsar Shōwas födelsedag. Känd som Hirohito under sin regentperiod som varade fram till 1989.3 maj – Konstitutionsdagen (Kenpō Kinenbi): Firas till minne av den japanska konstitutionen från 1947.4 maj – Grönskans dag (Midori no Hi): En dag för att uppskatta naturen.5 maj – Barnens dag (Kodomo no Hi): En högtid för att fira barns hälsa och lycka. Familjer hissar karpformade vimplar (koinobori) för att symbolisera styrka och framgång för sina barn.6 maj – Ersättningshelgdag för Grönskans dag: Eftersom 4 maj 2025 infaller på en söndag, flyttas helgdagen till måndag 6 maj. ​Det ska tilläggas att dom som kan också tar ledigt den 30 april till 2 maj och då får man en sammanhängande ledighet på upp till åtta dagar. ​NYHETERDen japanska centralbanken Bank of Japan (BOJ) mer än halverar sin prognos över den ekonomiska tillväxten för budgetåret. Centralbankschefen Kazuo Ueda pekar ut USA:s hot om kraftigt höjda importtullar som den enskilt viktigaste orsaken till de pessimistiska tongångarna. Från tidigare aviserade 1,1 procents tillväxt talar banken nu om 0,5 procent.Från och med den 3 april införde Trumpadministrationen en tull på 25 % på alla importerade fordon, inklusive personbilar från Japan. ​Till det ska läggas den 10 %-iga generella importtull som trädde ikraft för alla varor från länder utanför Nordamerika den 5 april. Totalt alltså 35 %-iga importtullar som japanska biltillverkare nu måste förhålla sig till. Det ska tilläggas att personbilar är Japans överlägset största exportvara.Bank of Japan tillkännagav även att man i nuläget väljer att hålla styrräntan oförändrad eftersom inflationstakten mattats av betänkligt den senaste månaden.Den japanska valutan yen tappade ytterligare mark efter beskeden från centralbanken, vilket måhända är bra för besökare, men sämre för de japanska hushållen som får betala mer för importerade varor.En 28-årig man har gripits i Osaka efter han kört in i en grupp skolelever som var på väg hem från skolan.Sju av barnen skadades så pass allvarligt att de fick föras till sjukhus, samtliga ska dock vara vid medvetande enligt uppgifter från polisen.Den misstänkte som är hemmahörande i Tokyo har i förhör sagt att han var ute efter att döda barnen. Motivet ska ha varit att han mått psykiskt dåligt.Ett japanskt företag har börjat leverera inhemskt producerat hållbart flygbränsle till bland andra Japan Airlines som blandar upp det med vanlig flygfotogen. Bränslet tillverkas av begagnad matolja som samlas in från restauranger i Japan.Företaget planerar att producera upp till 30 000 ton matoljebaserat flygbränsle per år. blandar det med vanligt flygbränsle.Enligt den japanska regeringen samlas det årligen in ungefär 400 000 ton begagnad matolja. Den största delen - 90 procent används till djurfoder och kemiska produkter.Japan Airlines uppger för dagstidningen Japan Times att man planerar att år 2030 låta matoljebaserat bränsle stå för 10% av den totala bränsleanvändningen.Enligt en undersökning från jobbmatchningsföretaget MyNavi säger sig nära hälften, eller 45% av alla heltidsanställda i Japan nu vara så kallade “silent quitters” och bara göra det absolut minsta som krävs av dem på jobbet.Beteendet är vanligast bland yngre, där många i åldern 20 till 30 år uppger att de prioriterar sin fritid mer än arbetet.De fyra viktigaste orsakerna till att workaholic Japan nu alltså tycks genomgå en förändring i det tysta är de yngre känner sig missnöjda med arbetsplatsen, upplever att deras insatser inte värderas, och att de är ointresserade av att göra karriär.Basebollstjärnan Shohei Ohtani fortsätter att toppa tidningarnas förstasidor i Japan, men den här gången handlar det inte om sport. Utan om att Ohtani som spelar för Los Angeles Dodgers, nyligen blivit pappa och valt att ta pappaledigt.Trots att japanska män har rätt till 52 veckors pappaledighet med lön är det bara en tredjedel som tar ut någon ledighet överhuvudtaget.Ohtanis beslut att ta pappaledighet när hans dotter föddes väckte stor uppmärksamhet, och han har nu fått smeknamnet "Papa-tani."Ohtanis val att ta ledigt har fått både andra idrottsmän och företag att fundera på att införa liknande policies i Japan. Flera japanska idrottsförbund och företag, som Toyota, har nu börjat erbjuda pappaledighet för sina anställda.Innan vi slår på stora trumman och basunerar ut att en pappaledighetsrevolution är nära förestående i Japan, ska vi kanske tillägga att Ohtani och hans klubb Dodgers enades om att tre dagars pappaledighet kunde vara tillräckligt.

Woke policies had been forced into every part of the federal government under the Biden/Harris regime. That includes the Department of Transportation, which is often overlooked in how it can (and has been) used to restrict freedom of movement, making it a powerful tool of tyranny. After the confirmation vote and the official swearing-in, new Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy's first act in his new office was to sign a memorandum to rescind or remove specific fuel standards implemented by the Biden Administration that were part of the agenda to force everyone into electric vehicles. Jay Beeber, Executive Director of Policy at the National Motorists Association, dedicated to protecting American drivers against the tyranny of the anti-car movement, joined me to discuss the work of the National Motorists Association and their expectations of the Trump 2.0 administration.Former Trump senior adviser Stephen Miller criticized the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) for implementing policies that undermine border security, alleging that these policies have not only allowed but, in some cases, facilitated child trafficking under the Biden administration. Amber May, host of The Amber May Show and creator of the online education program Podcast Like a PRO (which teaches aspiring podcasters how to build a successful podcast, and you can get a discount with promo code Tim), joined me to discuss the use of taxpayer dollars helping to facilitate child trafficking.The spate of recent aviation disasters and close calls have people worried about the safety of flying. The midair collision that killed 67 near Washington, the fiery plane crash in Philadelphia, and a plane crash in Alaska that killed 10 are only the most high-profile disasters. There was also a Japan Airlines plane that clipped a parked Delta plane while it was taxiing at the Seattle airport, and a United Airlines plane caught fire during takeoff at the Houston airport after an engine problem sparked a fire on the wing. Lt. Col. Allen “Bullit” Campbell (USAF-retired) was an airplane Captain with Delta Airlines for 37 years and has landed dozens of times at Reagan Airport in Washington, D.C., and is the author of My Life Above the Clouds, joined me to discuss air travel safety, the midair collision that killed 67 near Washington, and governmental policies that contributed to the crash as well as how to correct the issues.Community-minded Utah mom and preschool teacher Brianne Dressen wanted to play her part in helping to end the pandemic that shut down the world in 2020.

Her story is told in the memoir, medical mystery, and social commentary, Worth a Shot? The book tells the true story of what happened to Brianne's body, mind, and spirit as she found herself embroiled in a medical, political, and cultural nightmare that had been looming over America for decades.

UAP safety risks with Todd Curtis, a troubling wave of US Army aviation accidents, the impact of aviation accidents on public perception of safety, the Flexjet order for Embraer jets, and Boeing's worries about the future of the Space Launch System. Guest Todd Curtis Todd Curtis is a risk consultant who systematically uses data to understand and reduce aviation incidents. He is also a co-host of the Flight Safety Detectives podcast, which evaluates accidents, incidents, and risks from all areas of aviation. Todd explains that UAP safety risks are not separate and distinct from other safety issues, and lessons learned from UAP encounters may carry over to one or more other aviation risks. The recent interview with the Flight Safety Detectives about the UAP's close encounter with a sailplane (Hair-Raising UAP Encounter Shared by Pilot – Episode 252) illustrates a key crossover between UAP and other aviation risks. Todd argues that the key challenge is to develop a fundamental understanding of UAP and a set of shared goals and definitions that will serve to support processes that will identify, reduce, or eliminate UAP-related aviation risks. Todd has spent most of his aviation career focusing on aviation safety. After earning electrical engineering degrees at Princeton University and the University of Texas, he served as a flight test engineer in the U.S. Air Force. After earning master's degrees from MIT, one in policy and another in management, he was a safety engineer at Boeing, where he supported accident investigations and conducted safety analyses during the development of the 777. His 2000 book, "Understanding Aviation Safety Data," described his approach to analyzing aviation risk and evaluating accident and incident trends. See: AIAA UAP Integration and Outreach Committee 767 Encounters UAP – Episode 256 Flight Safety Detectives on Instagram, Facebook, X, and YouTube.   Aviation News For The Army, the D.C. Crash Is the Latest In A Wave Of Troubling Accidents [Paywall] The Army had 15 Class A flight accidents in fiscal 2024 that claimed 11 lives. In 2023 there were 9 Class A flight accidents that killed 14. Army crash investigators say 82% of the accidents over the past five years were primarily caused by human error. The Army has acknowledged that inexperienced aircrews are a problem. Recent aviation disasters cause fears about the safety of flying Public concern about air safety is growing with news of the fatal crashes in Washington, DC, Philadelphia, and Alaska, as well as other incidents such as the wing of a Japan Airlines 787 striking the tail of a stationary Delta Airlines 737, and a United A319 with an engine fire during takeoff. Experts point out the overall safety of the system, but is it enough to influence perception? Flexjet signs $7bn order for 182 aircraft with Embraer Global fractional ownership provider Flexjet announced the order for 182 Praetor 600, Praetor 500, and Phenom 300E models to be delivered over the next five years. The deal includes 30 options and an enhanced services and support agreement.  Boeing has informed its employees that NASA may cancel SLS contracts Boeing's vice president and program manager for the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket announced to employees at an all-hands meeting that Boeing's contracts for the rocket could end in March. Boeing was planning for layoffs of about 400 in case the cost-plus contracts were not renewed. Boeing is the primary contractor for the Space Launch System rocket. The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (or WARN) Act requires US employers with 100 or more full-time employees to provide a 60-day notice in advance of mass layoffs or plant closings.

A state of emergency has been declared as the island has experienced around 7,700 earthquakes over the past week.Philippines: Overnight a US government-affiliated aircraft crashed in Maguindanao del Sur, resulting in the deaths of four American crew members. One active duty soldier, and three US military contractors were killed in the crash. AC: Details have been hard to come by as this aircraft was an Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) asset. Anytime a spy plane crashes, the details regarding the circumstances of the crash will usually not be disclosed. The aircraft itself was a heavily-modified Beechcraft King Air 350 registered as N349CA. -HomeFront-Washington D.C. - The White House has walked back President Trumps claims on his plan for Gaza, with the White House stating that the United States will not be sending boots on ground to achieve his goals. The White House also stated that the American taxpayer will not be funding this venture. Yesterday afternoon SECDEF Hegseth reaffirmed American support to Israel, and stated that "all options" are being considered with regards to American involvement in the Middle East.Also in Washington, scandal continues to develop regarding the audit of USAID, and the various entities that this agency was sending tax dollars to.Washington: A minor aircraft collision was reported in Seattle, as a Japan Airlines aircraft collided with a Delta aircraft while taxiing. Japan Airlines Flight 68 struck the tail of Delta Flight 1921 last night, resulting in minor damage to both aircraft. AC: No injuries were reported and this appears to be a fairly common aviation mishap.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Although no formal evacuation orders have been issued in Santorini, many Greeks have departed the island voluntarily. Local media reports that roughly 12,000 people have already left the island, even though most of the earthquakes have been comparatively small. Nevertheless, local concern is beginning to mount, leading to many locals making preparations just in case.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

Japan ist ein wichtiger Handelspartner für Deutschland und die EU und der Geschäftsreise-Verkehr zwischen Deutschland und Japan ist traditionell sehr wichtig und signifikant. Yuji Wendler, der in beiden Kulturen groß geworden und Veranstalter für Geschäftsreisen ist, orientiert Sven Meyer und Andy Janz in dieser letzten Folge in Sachen japanisches Geschäftsgebaren und erklärt dass Dienst in Japan eben nicht immer Dienst und Schnapps eben auch nicht immer Schnapps ist. Als Special Guest ist wieder die kulinarische Botschafterin der Japanischen Küche, Kaoru Iriyama dabei, orientiert die beiden Reisenden in Sachen Kaiseki-Dinner und macht viel Lust auf noch mehr Japan. Obendrein gibt Georg Etling, der Chefverkäufer der Japan Airlines in Deutschland Tipps für die Flugreise nach und Flugreisen in Japan, bevor es dann auch schon heißt vom Land der aufgehenden Sonne Abschied zu nehmen. Was bleibt ist die Lust auf ein Land, welches durch landschaftliche und kulturelle Vielfalt besticht und Sven und Andy nachhaltig verzaubert hat. Sayonara Japan.

Imaginez un avion recouvert d'une peau inspirée directement de celle du requin. C'est exactement ce que teste actuellement la compagnie Japan Airlines, en collaboration avec des chercheurs et des ingénieurs aéronautiques. Mais pourquoi s'intéresser à un tel revêtement inspiré du monde animal ? La réponse tient en un mot : l'aérodynamisme.La peau des requins est recouverte de minuscules structures en forme d'écailles appelées denticules dermiques. Ces denticules permettent de réduire la traînée hydrodynamique lorsque le requin nage, lui permettant d'évoluer rapidement et efficacement dans l'eau. Les ingénieurs ont donc eu l'idée de transposer ce concept au monde de l'aviation, où la réduction de la traînée est un enjeu majeur.En appliquant une peinture spéciale qui imite la texture des denticules sur la surface des avions, Japan Airlines espère réduire la résistance de l'air. Une traînée moindre signifie une consommation de carburant réduite, donc des économies substantielles pour les compagnies aériennes, tout en diminuant leur empreinte carbone. On estime que cette technologie pourrait permettre de réduire la consommation de carburant de 1 à 2 %, ce qui représente des millions de litres d'économies sur une flotte entière et des tonnes de CO2 en moins rejetées dans l'atmosphère.L'expérimentation menée par Japan Airlines s'inscrit dans une volonté plus large de rendre l'aviation plus respectueuse de l'environnement. Face aux préoccupations croissantes liées aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre et aux pressions réglementaires pour une aviation plus verte, les compagnies recherchent activement des solutions innovantes.D'ailleurs, cette technologie bio-inspirée ne se limite pas à l'aéronautique. Elle est aussi testée dans le domaine maritime, sur la coque des navires, pour limiter les frottements avec l'eau et réduire leur consommation de carburant.Si les résultats des tests sont concluants, on pourrait voir, dans un futur proche, la généralisation de ce type de revêtement dans l'industrie aérienne. Cela montre une fois de plus comment la nature, par des millions d'années d'évolution, peut inspirer les technologies les plus avancées pour répondre aux défis de notre époque.En somme, la peinture "peau de requin" est un exemple fascinant de biomimétisme, où la science et la nature s'unissent pour rendre nos déplacements plus efficaces et plus durables.

Also, AvGeeks flock to Bluesky, a STEM author at the NASM, and F-35B trials on a Japanese flattop. The contrails of an Airbus A340 jet, over London, England. Photographed by Adrian Pingstone in March 2007. Aviation News GE and NASA to accelerate understanding of contrails The "Contrail Optical Depth Experiment" (CODEX) is a research project conducted through a NASA and GE Aerospace partnership to study the formation and behavior of contrails. Contrails are clouds of ice particles that airplanes can create when they fly through cold and humid air. Persistent contrails are thought to contribute to climate warming. The primary goal of CODEX is to accurately measure the optical depth of contrails, which indicates how much light is blocked by the contrail. In the project, a GE Boeing 747-400 creates the contrails and NASA's G-III research aircraft (a modified Gulfstream III business jet) follows and scans the 747's wake with Advanced LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology to analyze the contrails produced by different engine configurations. This will hopefully lead to the development of engine technologies that reduce contrail formation. NASA Gulfstream G-III NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, operates the Gulfstream G-III aircraft, NASA tail number 804, as an aerodynamics research test bed. Work with the aircraft is funded through NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) as part of the Environmentally Responsible Aviation (ERA) project under the agency's Integrated Systems Research Program. GE 747-400 Flying Test Bed Since 2010, this former Japan Airlines plane has been used by GE to test new jet engines, such as the GE90, GEnx, LEAP, and the GE9X. The plane is based at Flight Test Operations (FTO) in Victorville. F-15E Pilot Recounts Having To Switch To Guns After Missiles Ran Dry During Iranian Drone Barrage An F-15E Strike Eagle shot down so many Iranian drones aimed at Israel that they ran out of air-to-air missiles. The crew was ordered to continue and use any weapon available, which left the Strike Eagle's 20mm Gatling Gun, capable of firing around 6,000 rounds per minute. Operating this gun is said to be risky with small, low, slow-moving targets. In this instance, the F-15 did not stop the drone. Feel Sorry For the Flight Attendants: Iberia's New A321XLR Long-Haul Jet Features Tiny Galleys That Even Contortionists Would Struggle to Work in Iberia is the launch customer of the Airbus A321XLR (extra long range) single-aisle jet. The airline is flying the plane on a Madrid and Boston route. According to Saffran, the Airbus SpaceFlex V2 galley and lavatory allows for 6 more seats in the A321. The Airbus Space-Flex galley and lavatory concept. Airbus says the A321XLR features a 4,700 nm range, 180-220 seats, and 30% lower fuel burn per seat than previous generation aircraft. The plane was launched in 2019 at the Paris Air Show. Compared to other A320 family aircraft, the A321XLR carries more fuel, has strengthened landing gear, and includes a revised wing trailing-edge flap for takeoff performance. Airbus offers two engine options: the CFM LEAP-1A and the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G. The first A321XLR was delivered to Iberia on 30 October 2024 and conducted its first revenue flight on 6 November 2024. The first long-haul flight with passengers was on 14 November 2024, from Madrid to Boston.

We look at Japan's policy to boost its economy by getting more women into the workforce. It was announced back in 2013 by former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, and dubbed 'Womenomics'.Mr Abe gave a deadline of 2020 to significantly increase the number of women in leadership roles. But that date quietly came and went without the target even getting close.However could things could be starting to change?
