Japan Airlines: Melbourne to Tokyo from $942 Return (Oct, Jan-Jun Including Sakura Season) @ Beat That Filght

130

Japan Airlines is ranked as the 6th best airline in the world, and a 5-star airline. A direct flight on them from Melbourne for this price is unreal - note that some are direct, but sometimes the cheapest is via Singapore, still on JAL.

The cherry blossom or sakura is never perfectly predictable, but some early predictions are below:

        Tried the January ones. Looks like it might be working again but seats must be very limited. Doesn't work for 2 adults and 3 kids

      It's just being lazy

  • Panicked as i paid $1430 with JAL in February but noticed that the flights seem to be the ones with long layovers whereas I have direct both ways.

    • Gotta just not look and be happy with what you paid aye haha 🤣 we paid $1050 return and direct with Qantas for this November.

      • Haha. Yep! I turned off all of price alerts once I booked but still doesn't solve the OzB addiction…

  • Managed to book directly with the airline for a trip in late Jan to late Feb (direct flight there, via SIN with a 2 hour layover on the way back) for a tick over $1000 a few days ago. Usually far less hassle booking directly with the airline (plus you get free seat selection when booking), but any sort of price around this range is very good for JAL
