JAL to Conduct Inspections on All Airbus A350-1000 Aircraft
Japan Airlines (JAL) will temporarily change the schedule for its Tokyo/Narita to Boston flights.
This is due to a major strike by a local American in-flight meal catering company. The affected flight is the JL8 from Tokyo/Narita to Boston. From July 29, the operation of flight JL8 will be suspended, and from July 30, flight JL8008 will be operated instead. The aircraft type, a Boeing 787-9, will remain unchanged.
Flight JL8008 will depart Tokyo/Narita at 11:00 AM and arrive in Boston at 11:00 AM. The return flight, JL7 from Boston, will not see any schedule changes. Due to the uncertain end date of the strike, the end date for these schedule changes is also undetermined. As of July 24, sales of flight JL8 tickets have been suspended for flights from July 29 to August 13, and tickets for flight JL8008 are being sold for flights from July 30 to August 6.
Furthermore, due to the strike, both flight JL7 from Boston to Tokyo/Narita and flight JL11 from Dallas/Fort Worth to Tokyo/Haneda are experiencing restrictions in in-flight services, including the provision of a simplified menu.

JL8 Tokyo/Narita (18:25) to Boston (18:25) / Until July 28
