Does Award Travel Finder offer Japan Airlines award alerts?
Japan Airlines award alerts are not available on Award Travel Finder: route monitors never search JAL, so no email fires when Mileage Bank award seats open on a Japan Airlines flight. What does work is a manual JAL award search across Economy, Premium Economy, Business and First, where the Miles Balance Filter slider hides every flight your JAL Mileage Bank Miles cannot book. JAL releases award seats about 360 days before departure, so run that search yourself on a route such as Tokyo (HND) to New York (JFK) as your date nears the window. The release note for JAL also records an OTP requirement since 10 Apr 2025 and a chart hike on 10 Jun 2025, so check the miles price before you move any points.

Questions about Japan Airlines award alerts
Can I set a route monitor for Japan Airlines?
No. The automatic route monitor check never searches Japan Airlines, so no alert fires for JAL seats, even on a Premium account with unlimited monitors. Search JAL award availability by hand instead.
When do Japan Airlines award seats release?
JAL award seats release about 360 days before departure. The release note counts the 360 days from the return-leg departure, and it also records an OTP requirement since 10 Apr 2025 and a chart hike on 10 Jun 2025.
Can I book JAL flights with partner miles?
Yes. JAL flights can be booked with American Airlines AAdvantage, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan, British Airways Avios and other oneworld partner miles. Alaska Mileage Plan often offers the best value for JAL premium cabin redemptions.
Which points transfer into JAL Mileage Bank?
Bilt Rewards transfers 1:1, Capital One Miles 4:3, Marriott Bonvoy 3:1 and Rove Miles 1:1. Set your Miles Balance Filter slider afterwards to see only the JAL flights you can book.
