Japan Airlines, Japan's national carrier, consistently ranks among the top airlines in the world. Yet, its own loyalty program, JAL Mileage Bank, often gets overlooked by travelers looking to use points and miles to fly to Japan<\/a>. That's because it's traditionally been pretty difficult to earn Japan Airlines miles, but that's no longer as true as it once was.<\/p>\n
