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).
