Self-service Bar
JAL Business Class self service bar on 777-300ER |
Above is the almost fully stocked self-service bar. Sorry I can't resist the chocolate and complete forgot I haven't taken the picture yet LOL. I really like that cartoon route map, which I think probably is gone now as part of the cost saving as I didn't see that map anymore on my other flights. And too bad they took it away before I had a chance to ask if I can keep that :( And how the bar area is decorated depends on your crew. On my return flight the crew used yellow leaves instead of paper crane to decorate the area as it is Autumn in Japan. Overall It's a nice area that you can really relax and spend some time when you are bored, especially it is located right next to the lavatories. It's a good way to make your waiting time more "relaxing" LOL. And there are times you can see passenger(s) really helping themselves out with the wine (I could smell it when I walked passed him and I am pretty sure he loves this Sky Gallery LOL).
Photo Exhibition Panel
As you may have guessed, the theme of the exhibition in November is JAL fleet history. Pictures of 8 different JAL aircraft were displayed. Some of them are really old ones from the 50's and 60's. How many have you been on? Sorry for the picture qualities. The pictures below are actually from my December outbound flight which I took them right before they turned on the seatbelt sign. I forgot to take them on my return flight and the December outbound was my last chance to do it as JAL has announced a different theme for my return flight :)

About the Route Map
ReplyDeleteThey didn't put up the map is because it's for security on USA Routes. Not suppose to share information about where they are currently at in case of terrorism. It's not because of cost saving. Hope you all could understand :)
I think they still load it on board if I am not wrong.
If I am able to get a copy I will email to you :)
Anyway Thanks for the Wonderful blog :)
Well they loaded the interactive map on the IFE which contains way more accurate information on where about the aircraft is at on my Dec 31 2009 flight. I don't think that's because of security reason at all. But it would be great if you can get a copy then maybe I can ask for it on my next flight :P
