Just checked my JAL booking and the ETD of JL9 has changed to a 1:05AM departure. This doesn't work for me.
What are my chances of getting JAL to move me to the JFK flight JL5 departing JFK at 1:25PM?
I'm in the same boat with an award F flight out of ORD. It'll be interesting to see what happens but given that my flight isn't until July, I'll probably wait a month or two to see what happens with the other ORD flight and with lounge access.
