In Premium Economy and Economy, an optional menu (paid service) with a variety of culinary choices will be available. The vegan and vegetarian menu will be renewed to offer additional choices that will delight a more diverse clientele. The collaboration with the best chefs of the RED U-35 competition will continue, focusing on the incorporation of environmentally friendly ingredients “ The Future 50 Foods » (sustainable ingredients as advocated by Unilever and the World Wide Fund for Nature, taking into account factors such as safety and nutritional value) and prioritizing nutritional value. “The aim is to offer a healthy meal on board that satisfies both body and mind“, underlines JAL.
On-board amenities
In First Class and Business Class, a loungewear loan service will be introduced. This tracksuit is developed jointly with the Uchino company, using premium 100% cotton Airy Touch material.
An amenity kit will be provided, its cover featuring works by contracted artists from experimental wellness company Heralbony. As part of the celebration of the A350-1000 maiden flight, a JAL-exclusive Misoka bamboo toothbrush, which can be used only with water, will be offered for a limited time.
Finally, Italian-Japanese design firm Nendo will oversee the design of new tableware for on-board meals, scheduled for gradual introduction from spring 2024. Efforts have been made to reduce the use of products plastics, with a transition from disposable containers and lids to materials such as paper or 100% recycled plastic. To further strengthen these initiatives, 100% plant-based materials will be adopted for reusable tableware and for bags used to package cutlery.
