And for the guys thinking of coming here and the pax guys that are going to be joining cargo (wether they like it or not), we have some unbelievable sweet potato sandwiches for in flight catering! You're gonna love em!
There is one point that has not been well considered, when refering to the availability of JAL flight crews; ANA do not want to be held responsible to the labor laws of Japan, that would really mess with their duty time plans that are more suited to UAV. That's why there is no resident option, it is almost always a shore pass to enter Japan.
To elaborate on an earlier point, we now know and forever will what ANA thinks of us and what they will do at the slightest hint of opportunity to exploit people. To think I was a moderate! ha
