JAL Group & Hato Bus Collaboration: Sustainable Tour Learning Around Narita Airport Featuring an 'Aircraft Eco-Class' by JAL Pilots

Hato Bus Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ota-ku, Tokyo; President: Reiko Takeichi; hereinafter 'Hato Bus') and JAL Agriport Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Narita, Chiba; President: Kenichi Hanamasu; hereinafter 'JAL Agriport') will operate a limited-time run of their highly acclaimed collaboration project, 'JAL Group & Hato Bus Sustainable Tour: Learning Around Narita Airport (featuring an 'Aircraft Eco-Class' by JAL pilots),' starting in April 2026.

Since last year, we have been planning and operating bus tours in collaboration with the JAL Group, which have been very well received. Aiming for a sustainable and better world, JAL Agriport works with various regions in Chiba Prefecture to deepen connections with communities and people through agriculture. As part of our SDGs initiatives, we have planned this collaborative bus tour as a 'Sustainable Tour.' This tour allows passengers to leave Tokyo on a Hato Bus and enjoy a special experience around Narita Airport in Chiba Prefecture.

At 'DINING PORT Goryokaku,' a traditional folk-style restaurant operated by JAL Agriport, guests will enjoy a 'Goryokaku Kobachi-zen' lunch featuring fresh ingredients and traditional dishes from cities and towns neighboring Narita. After the meal, active JAL pilots will take the stage to host an 'Aircraft Eco-Class,' a program that introduces the JAL Group's environmental activities and encourages participants to think about environmental issues through the lens of aviation.

Following this, guests will visit 'JAL FARM,' a farm operated by JAL Agriport, to enjoy 30 minutes of all-you-can-eat strawberries, including varieties served in JAL international first class. We will also explain the sustainable agriculture practices that JAL Agriport strives for. Additionally, guests will receive a souvenir: 'Imo-kenpi (sweet potato fries) Onion Consommé Flavor,' made with 'Beni-Azuma' sweet potatoes harvested at JAL FARM, which are popular as tea snacks in JAL domestic first class. We hope you continue to enjoy the memories of your JAL journey after returning home.
