Japan Airlines (JAL) is offering free domestic flights in Japan for some passengers who book an international flight with the airline.

At the moment, the offer is available to passengers booking flights into Japan from a number of countries in North America and the Asia-Pacific region.

For example, it means that a passenger booking a flight from Thailand to Tokyo will be able to book a free flight from the Japanese capital to any other destination in Japan that JAL flies to.

According to the JAL website, the airline has 133 domestic routes and 66 international routes.

It's good news for tourists who'd like to explore more of Japan, but it could also help take the pressure off some of the country's most popular sights.

Almost 18 million international visitors came to Japan in the first half of 2024, according to the country's national tourism organization.

That's a record number of arrivals, and it means some popular tourist areas — including the center of Tokyo and Mount Fuji — can get overcrowded.

JAL's offer was first made available in early September to tourists from Canada, Mexico and the US.

By the end of the month, people traveling from Australia and New Zealand were also eligible, along with those from Thailand, Singapore, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, India and Taiwan.

JAL hopes to make it available to even more passengers in the future.

To take advantage of the offer, passengers must book their domestic flight at the same time that they make their international booking with JAL.

However, the airline said travelers from the US, Canada, Mexico and China will have to pay a little more — $100 for travelers from the US — if they plan to spend more than 24 hours in the first city they arrive in.

JAL Offers Free Domestic Flights for Some Tourists

One of Kafka's best-known works, The Metamorphosis was first published in 1915. It is often cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is still widely studied in high schools, colleges, and universities across the world. This striking novella tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa who wakes one morning to find himself mysteriously transformed into a huge insect.

Gregor subsequently struggles, unsuccessfully, to adjust to his new condition. The cause of Gregor's sudden and inexplicable transformation is never revealed, and Kafka himself never gave an explanation. The bulk of the story deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his family, which is repulsed by the strange, giant, and verminous creature Gregor has become.

Literary critics and readers alike have generally interpreted The Metamorphosis to be a parable about the individual’s sense of finding himself victimized by large impersonal forces in society which are beyond one's grasp or ability to deal with. Horror, humor, and the surrealism of dreams are all present from the first sentence and stand to this day in this illuminating evocation of the condition of the modern, alienated anti-hero.

Written by Franza Kafka; English translation read by Jason Rosette

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

うれしいことに、僕のレッスンを受けてくれる方が増えてきました。ありがとうございます！

僕のitalkiのプロフィールで、今まで1,000回以上のレッスンと、200人以上の方と話していることがわかるので、それで増えてきたのかもしれません。もちろん、このPodcastを聞いてレッスンを予約してくれた方もいます。

本当にありがとうございます！

僕のレッスンをいろんな使い方をする人がいます。それはとても良いことだと思います。

本を一緒に読んだり、ニュースを一緒に読んだり、日常会話を楽しんだりします。自分にルーティンを作るために僕のレッスンを予約する人もいます。自分1人で勉強するのは大変ですね。

僕も英語を勉強していますが、自分だけで勉強していると続けるのはむずかしいです。でも、conversation、ネイティブの人と話す時間があると、うまく話せたり、うまく話せなかったりするので、それでまたがんばろう！という気持ちになりますね。それはとても大切なことです。

つづけると必ずうまく話せるようになります。

僕もitalkiで英語のレッスンを受けています。1年以上続けています。1年前よりも確実に上達していると感じます。聞き取ることができるし、考えたことを英語で話せることが増えました。英語の先生からも良くなっていると言われます。

それはとても自信になります。

うまくいかない時もありますが、その時はよく考えますね。
文法を勉強するか、発音を勉強するか、語彙ごいを勉強するか。考えて、また勉強して、また話します。

そうやって少しずつ良くなります。

みなさんの日本語も同じように、少しずつ良くなります。
時間がかかります。あせらずに続けましょう！

話したい！と思った方は、ぜひitalkiでお話しましょう！お待ちしていますね。

今回も最後まで聞いていただきありがとうございます！
ではまた！
