Japan Airlines Apex Suite Review: LAX to Tokyo (Boeing 787-9)

In this video it's time to fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo, Japan with Japan Airlines in their Apex Suite 787-9 business class. We've got 11 hours to enjoy this product and test out everything from the food to the service and of course the seat itself. Is it still a top-notch product, a private haven above the clouds, or is this product getting outdated? Does JAL still deliver? Let's find out. This is flight number 4 of my epic ten day oneworld round-the-world trip from November 2024. Don't miss all the previous videos.
