Introduction

Japan Airlines, commonly known as JAL, is a major international airline based in Tokyo, Japan.

The company aims to cater to a diverse range of clients, including both leisure and business travelers.

This level of responsiveness contributes to a positive customer experience, fostering a sense of satisfaction and loyalty among passengers.

Conclusion

While JAL has demonstrated commendable efforts in leveraging social media for its marketing activities, there are areas where improvement could enhance its strategy further. Firstly, the airline could explore the potential of live streaming platforms, such as YouTube or Instagram Live, to give its audience an immersive experience of flying with JAL. Live content can provide viewers with real-time updates, exclusive interviews with pilots or crew members, and virtual tours of the aircraft, offering a unique opportunity to showcase the airline's services in a dynamic manner.
