In addition, many additional extras complete the inflight offering such as a choice of local newspapers and magazines and a selection of movies in Japanese or with subtitles.

For the winter 2013-14 season, the Air France-KLM group is offering 52 weekly frequencies on departures from Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Amsterdam-Schiphol, some of which are operated on a code-share basis with Japan Airlines.

Three destinations are on offer: Tokyo, Osaka and Fukuoka.
