Japan Airlines is offering FREE domestic flights to any destination in Japan when passengers book an international ticket with JAL.
The idea is to encourage international passengers to explore more destinations, including historic Nikko in northern Japan and winter ski/snowboard resorts, including Ikon Pass member Niseko and Epic Pass member Hakuba Valley.
To qualify for the offer, passengers must book both their JAL international and domestic flights within the same reservation.
Domestic flights booked separately are not eligible for the promotion.
For travelers from the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and several Asian countries. A stopover fee will be charged if their initial stay in Japan lasts longer than 24 hours.
However, passengers from other countries can enjoy the domestic flight segments without any extra fees.
By booking both international and domestic flights in the same reservation, passengers can enjoy a seamless travel experience without the added cost of domestic connections. With plans to expand eligibility to additional countries, this initiative underscores JAL’s commitment to providing exceptional travel experiences.
