The airline also provides guests with a novel anti-viral wallet for storing face masks when dining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Onboard flights, JAL has made small but important changes to service delivery to reduce contamination risks, and this includes adapted handling for meal trays and bar items, use of food covers, revised systems for mid-flight dining, and increased inflight sanitisation of high-contact areas such as washroom fixtures and fittings. In addition to this, PPE disposal bags are given, and customers can request spare face masks and sanitiser wipes throughout the flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201dSince the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the JAL Group has taken proactive steps to implement and strengthen key measures against COVID-19 to provide customers a safe and secure travel experience. Through the efforts of our dedicated staff at the JAL Group, it is certainly an honor to be certified and receive the highest 5-Star COVID-19 Airline Safety Rating by Skytrax. The JAL Group will continue to strengthen our COVID-19 measures and look forward to the day when people around the world can travel safely\u201d, said Yuji Akasaka, President and CEO of Japan Airlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top uagb-post__image-enabled
