Japan Airlines has introduced a well-measured portfolio of safety practices to reduce the risks related to the spread of COVID-19, and this includes all elements of enhanced physical distancing, hand hygiene, and increased disinfection and cleaning protocols in the airport and onboard flights.

As part of the “FlySafe” commitment, Japan Airlines has expedited the rollout of touchless technologies for domestic check-in and bag-drop and recently launched robot customer service assistants to help customers with flight information.

Edward Plaisted of Skytrax said: “Japan Airlines is a consistent industry leader in matters of cleanliness and hygiene, and we are delighted to see that the airline has reinforced these already robust protocols to lower the risks of coronavirus transmission. The airline has applied a great deal of Japanese logic and efficiency in the setup of high-movement areas such as check-in, boarding, and arrival, and has introduced practical and genuinely useful technologies to assist customers on their journey. The combination of factors here is vital to reinforce confidence in air travel.”

Premium passengers will find new low-contact procedures in the First-Class lounge as JAL has launched electronic a la carte dining ordering and table service and shower booking system. The airline also provides guests with a novel anti-viral wallet for storing face masks when dining.

Onboard flights, JAL has made small but important changes to service delivery to reduce contamination risks, and this includes adapted handling for meal trays and bar items, use of food covers, revised systems for mid-flight dining, and increased inflight sanitisation of high-contact areas such as washroom fixtures and fittings. In addition to this, PPE disposal bags are given, and customers can request spare face masks and sanitiser wipes throughout the flight.

The COVID-19 Safety Audit of Japan Airlines was completed in March 2021, and for the home base airport standards, Japan Airlines was evaluated for it’s domestic and international operations at Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 of Tokyo Haneda Airport. The COVID-19 analysis incorporates relevant areas from the IATA Health Safety Standards Checklist, ICAO CART Take-off guidance and WHO recommendations. The audit evaluates the scale and efficiency of an airline’s enhanced health and safety protocols introduced during the global pandemic, to determine standards of social distancing, cleaning systems and standards across both airport and onboard environments, and all associated measures to enhance customer and staff safety (eg. face mask usage, service systems in the airport and onboard flights).
