In first class, a door transforms the large suite into what feels like a hotel room for air passengers. It features an adjustable sofa that converts to a single or double bed. For the first time with these aircraft, JAL introduces fully private rooms in the business-class cabin; seats also feature built-in headrest speakers, a 24-inch monitor and other custom features. In premium economy, the special FIXBACK seat offers stress-free recline.
JAL’s A350-1000 international aircraft first entered service on the New York (JFK) to Tokyo route in January 2024. It currently also operates from Dallas Ft. Worth (DFW), London (LHR) and Paris (CDG).

As the airline strives toward a more sustainable future, it replaces its international fleet of Boeing 777-300ERs with the new A350-1000 that operate with the latest in environmental performance. So far, the carrier has taken delivery of nine of 13 of the A350-1000s.

May 14, 2025Hotel Van Zandt Review
One step onto Austin’s Rainey Street and you’ll feel like you’ve joined the cool kids at the best playground in the city. Just behind the cottage bars, pint-sized skyscrapers soar. One of them, Hotel Van Zandt, the Rainey district's pièce de resistance, beckons with a song-like spirit —apropos because the independently owned property, rife with music motifs, was named after beloved singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt. Sixteen stories high, the hotel embodies Austin’s lust for music, manifesting with a vinyl corner; trumpet chandeliers; myriad musical references; replica vintage posters in frames; and its own live music venue, which doubles as its acclaimed restaurant, Geraldine’s. Don’t miss the mesmerizing installation of colorful origami-like birds composed from vinyl records that flitter from an old phonograph.
