The foreigners? JAL? Please write more clearly.

So, if you use your miles for purchasing a one way domestic ticket, JAL will give you the return ticket free.
Nice idea! I wonder which cities qualify?

No thanks. Awful airline.

Taxpayers' money will be used to pay for this.

Compared to what?

Both? Either? It's a good thing for everyone concerned.

Except for low cost carriers, all standard airlines sell return tickets.
You can buy as well one-way ticket but it will be more expensive than the return one.
Thus I do not see any gift here.

Uh-oh. JAL's deep ties and obligations to the government and the public agencies in the past are largely responsible for its numerous taxpayer-funded bailouts. I was under the impression after the last rescue that the airline pledged to become more "normal," ie, competitive and cost-conscious, as opposed to doing what the govt wants it do out of national interest, like promoting the Olympics.

the money is from your tax, unacceptable!!
why for foreigners only???? illegal service.

If JAL has extra money sloshing about maybe they could put some of it in a fund to recompense the loyal shareholders whose investment turned into confetti when the company went under and was bailed out by the taxpayer.

One way tickets are expensive and sometimes more than a round trip.

It seems people here don't understand that a return ticket is out and back.
Example:
one way = Haneda to Sapporo.
return = Haneda to Sapporo, and then Sapporo to Haneda.

That's great, considering how expensive Japanese domestic routes are.
