It's quite troublesome, but we hope to earn enough JAL miles to get tickets through this method
I could not easily find the basic earning max, but all examples are that you can get 250 miles a month for basic walking. That's a lot of months of 500 yen per month get a ticket. That's 18,000 yen for a one way to Okinawa. So fair, there might be some campaigns with extra miles. But still not the greatest offer in the world.

I should not talk too much, as I dutifully get my 20 miles for every trip to Haneda on the monorail, so there is another miniscule earning. But at least it is truly free, as need to go anyway.
