" ʻoluʻolu" is a Hawaiʻian word meaning "pleasantness".
JAL proposed a new way of travel that allows customers to feel "comfort" in Hawaiʻi and Japan, in addition to sustainability in transportation.

Initiatives in Hawai'i
Restoration Activities at the foot of Diamond Head
We collaborated with Kuilei Cliffs, an environmental non-profit organization actively engaged in restoration activities at the beach park at the foot of Diamond Head. We carried out planting grass, removing invasive alien species, and planting native Hawaiian species.
We aim to contribute to creating a richer ecosystem by establishing nesting sites for birds that primarily breed in Hawai'i.
JAL Weekend Excursion
In collaboration with the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa Outreach College and Kuilei Cliffs, an environmental non-profit organization, we held the JAL Weekend Excursion on March 8th for Japanese exchange students and local students in Hawai'i.
In the morning, approximately 80 participants took part in restoration activities. In the afternoon, JAL hosted a symposium featuring representatives from the collaborating organizations and approximately 130 students from both Japan and Hawai'i, including those who joined online from Japan.
Planting of Native Hawaiian Species (Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiatives)
We visited the NPO organization Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiatives and planted kou, a native Hawaiian species.
The JAL Group continues to contribute to preserving and enriching Hawaii's natural environment.

Message from JAL Sustainability Advisor
As part 3 of the "Sustainable Challenge" project, this project is again supervised by JAL Sustainability Advisor, Professor KANIE Norichika of Keio University's Graduate School.
Please take a look at Professor Kanie's message for this project.
The term SDGs is becoming more and more popular, but the substance of the SDGs has not yet been conveyed, and I feel that each of us is required to make a transformation.
I have been involved in the JAL Group's Sustainable Challenge Project as the Sustainability Advisor since its first year, and the project has evolved every year based on the concept of "creating better travel for the future together with our customers".
In addition to sustainability in transportation, this year's program focuses on "local exchanges". We believe that getting to know a place and its people more deeply is necessary to create a sustainable world.
On the other hand, I think it is a challenge that various efforts toward sustainability are not fully communicated to users. I hope that when customers learn about this "Sustainable Challenge" project, not only the JAL Group's employees but also our customers will be able to work together to create a sustainable world and make new changes.
Please also take a look at Professor Kanie's message video.
