So I'm sitting here at the sakura line at nrt... On one hand it's huge, will laid out, clean and generally pretty impressive with dinner great views.
I'm the other hand I'm a bit disappointed by the food offerings. Very small dining area compared to the overall size of the lounge and not quite enough seating.
For a lounge this size,I had expected more variety.
Still though,a great spot to kill time before boarding.
I'm really turning into a jal fan.
Glad that you like the lounge :)
The food offerings don't bother me much. I am perfectly happy with the curry rice, udon, and the croissant. The salad, soups, bread etc aren't bad either but I usually save my appetite for foods onboard :p By the way, if you go to the satellite one, you will have a different menu :)
By the way, they are planning to open a third lounge this fall, so we will see what they will offer.

Agree that the dining area is a bit small relative to the rest of the lounge... but hey, I would much prefer the lounge's catering to many others'!!! For me it's a nice buffet compared to the "snack offering" other lounges provide!
Going through NRT on oneworld this week (AA - JAL) Usually use the star alliance lounges, what is the Sakura lounge compared to the First Class lounge. Is Sakura just the name of the regular lounges?
