JAL Universal Design

Photo: Attention to Quality

Value Provided by JAL

We believe that providing safe and secure functional value to our customers is at the foundation of our services.
However, this alone does not constitute the "Attention to Quality" that we aim for. We believe that providing psychological value in the form of excitement from the perspective of the customer is also important.
In order to further enhance our "Attention to Quality", we have added three more principles to the 7 Principles of Universal Design, to form the 10 Principles of JAL Universal Design. In order to achieve a "JAL that is friendly to everyone", we will continue to provide our customers with the JAL beauty, quality, security and comfort.
