Japan Airlines' time-sensitive "J Speed" express cargo service, first
introduced in 2000, is being upgraded from mid July.
J Speed service in general provides express shipment, onboard guarantees,
late acceptance, speedy delivery at destination, internet booking and e-mail
tracking services. Other J Products include specialized services for general
freight, art items, fresh produce and shipments requiring temperature control.
New J Speed enhancements
From July 14, J Speed shipments will be capable of being transported on
the WOW cargo alliance network, increasing their distribution from the current 37 cities in 20 countries to 523 cities in 103 countries, greatly
enhancing the global reach of these special cargo services. The WOW alliance includes four major cargo airlines: JALCargo, Lufthansa Cargo,
Singapore Airlines Cargo and Scandinavian Air Services Cargo.
Another
new plus is the 'Time Definitive Service' which gives customers, at the time of reservation, a specific
and guaranteed delivery time at the airport of arrival. (If the performance misses
the specified time, refunds may be given. There will be exceptions to this
condition, at airports where delivery facilities and other circumstances may
be restricted. Such exceptions will be advised at the time of reservation).
The
new J Speeds' current reservation limit of 90 minutes before flight departure will
also be changed and last minute reservations will be accepted. J Speed shipments up to 100
kilograms will now always be accepted, previously this such shipments
were subject to space available, and the current J Speed condition of a limit of 300 kilograms per shipment
will be lifted to no limit. |
