Flying in style :-)

Jan 26, 2019

After Jetstar let us down three times a row (we will never fly with Jetstar again!!!!) - we had no choice but to book a flight with JAL (Japan Airlines) as we originally intended.

The staff are friendly, they give free green tea on the flight, the gave me a free scuba diving magazine on the plane - but most importantly - the plane we boarded was designed to look like a whale shark, and has a marine themed interior. 



As a man who's heart belongs to the sea, I could not think of a better way to fly!!!!

After trying to save money due to some unforeseen circumstances, we booked three flights with Jetstar. 
Flight 1 - Hokkaido to Kansai - DELAYED by 6 hours!
Flight 2 - Kansai to Okinawa - DELAYED by 4 hours
Flight 3 - Okinawa to Kansai - CANCELLED last minute when we were already at the airport, and the only alternative given was to fly at 9.30pm (21.30pm) the NEXT day!!!!!  The flight was originally due to be in the MORNING, and we urgently needed to be back in Kansai.
This would mean having to pay for a hotel for a night in Okinawa, and a hotel when we arrived back in Kansai.....thank you Jetstar.....you really care about your customers! (sarcasm)

If you try to pay LESS, you will pay more in stress and in wasted time.

JAL are the best airine in my opinion!

Why fly with anyone else :-)
