Japan Airlines launches its new Airbus A350-1000 on the Paris - Tokyo Haneda route

Japan Airlines, a member of the Oneworld alliance, began the gradual deployment of its new Airbus A350-1000 on its Paris (CDG) - Tokyo Haneda (HND) flights (JL046/JL045), offering customers an ever higher level of on-board comfort and a tailor-made experience. The airline marked the occasion with a special celebration at Terminal 2E of Roissy Charles de Gaulle (CDG) airport, to the delight of its passengers.

Mr. Inoue, Head of Ground Operations, commented: "At Japan Airlines, we continually strive to offer our customers the best possible service through a comfortable travel experience. The introduction of this new aircraft is an important step towards achieving this goal."

JAL's fourth international route, with the A350-1000, allows a greater number of international customers to experience the airline's latest cabin interiors and seating, with a
four-class configuration. To enhance customer satisfaction and commit to a more sustainable future, JAL is gradually replacing its fleet of Boeing 777-300ERs with Airbus A350-1000s, combining comfort and environmental performance. Japan Airlines has already taken delivery of nine (9) of the 13 A350-1000s ordered and is committed to making the transition to more advanced and environmentally friendly aircraft.
