Japan Airlines is making it easier for international travelers to explore beyond the usual hotspots.
Rabat– In an effort to relieve overcrowding in popular destinations like Tokyo and Kyoto, Japan Airlines is offering free domestic flights to select international travelers. This initiative encourages visitors to venture beyond the usual tourist hotspots and discover the diverse and often overlooked regions of Japan.
Here’s how it works
If you’re flying into Japan from an eligible country, you can add a free one-way domestic flight when booking your international ticket directly on the JAL website.
That means you could land in Tokyo and head straight to Okinawa’s beaches, Sapporo’s mountain air, or Fukuoka’s food scene, all without paying for the second flight.
Where can you go?
Depending on availability, JAL might fly you to Okinawa for tropical beaches and island vibes, Sapporo for snow and nature, or Fukuoka, Japan’s ramen capital with a laid-back coastal feel. You could also end up in Kagoshima or Matsuyama, both known for hot springs, mountain views, and a slower pace of life.
This offer is part of Japan’s broader effort to ease overcrowding in major cities like Tokyo and Kyoto while encouraging visitors to discover the charm of regions that often go unnoticed. By inviting travelers to explore beyond the typical tourist trail, Japan Airlines is helping create a more balanced and meaningful travel experience.
Eligible departure countries:
- United States
- Canada
- Mexico
- Thailand
- Singapore
- Australia
- New Zealand
- Vietnam
- Philippines
- Indonesia
- India
- China
- Taiwan
By offering free domestic flights, Japan Airlines is not only easing tourism pressure on major cities but also opening the door to lesser-known destinations rich in culture and natural beauty.
