For a few months now Bloompy has prepared himself for this eventual move and has psyched himself to going through the dated-looking T2, but having flown JAL a few times in the past year, perhaps T2 was not too bad after all . . . (oh, whom am I fooling? Yes it is bad, especially if one compares it to the Star Alliance wing).

I did see that JAL First Class had their own security entrance passageway, directly to the left of the regular security check entrance. Because JAL will be oneWorld, maybe this will be extended to EXPs/Emeralds as well? While I talk about JAL, do you think JAL Business Class Lounge will expand their massage program? I keep wondering why JAL did not offer the massage for the First Class lounge (FCer can still have 'em by going to the BC lounge).

At T1, the Green Car (car #6) Narita Express (N'Ex) conveniently delivers the passengers right in front of the escalators to give 'em a head start. That will be missed, too. (Oh, get over it!)
