Family travel on points and miles
We recently flew Japan Airlines JAL Business Class from San Francisco to Tokyo and back aboard a Boeing 777-300ER. In this JAL Business Class review, I’m covering the JAL Sky Suite seat, the 2-3-2 layout, what the cabin is like for families, food, amenities, and how comfortable it was for the long flight to Japan.
This flight was the start of our 10-night trip to Japan with kids, so being able to arrive in Tokyo rested made a huge difference.
Flights to Japan can be expensive, especially if you’re traveling as a family. Round-trip economy fares often exceed $1,200, and business class seats can run $4,000 or more. But here’s the good news: with the right strategy, you can travel to Japan on points and miles for a fraction of the cost.
In this guide, we’ll cover the best ways to book flights to Japan on points and miles. You’ll also learn which credit card points transfer to each airline, and step-by-step instructions for transferring points and booking.
If you’re planning a trip to Japan and considering flying with Japan Airlines (JAL), especially in business class, you’re in for a treat. On our recent journey from San Francisco (SFO) to Tokyo Haneda (HND) with JAL, we experienced top-notch service, comfort, and great dining.
In this JAL business class SFO to Tokyo review, we’ll share how we booked our tickets using points, what to expect from JAL’s business class seat layout, in-flight amenities, and the overall travel experience. Whether you’re flying solo or with family, Japan Airlines offers a premium experience well worth exploring.
