I can't be the first to redeem miles for lap infant international tickets, yet neither airline really seems to know what to do about this.
After this I called JAL again and they found "complex way" to add an infant fare, but it'll cost around 75% of the adult fare. It's a First class ticket, I'm not gonna pay 75% in cash for the infant fare...

Anyway will try to call again and hope for a better luck...
