Hmmm. Most of these campaigns don't seem like much to get excited about. The bonuses are pretty small, if you ask me. This is nowhere near enough to keep me from flying NH this year (though once I get the NH Super Flyers Card, I'll probably switch back to JL next year, simply because I prefer oneworld over Star).
The only promotion that looks really exciting is the double elite bonus mile campaign.
I remember a few years ago when JAL gave HUGE bonus Fly On Points. I got 18,000 FOPs just for taking a couple of domestic flights. Nothing in the new promotions comes close to that.

)Edit: PS: I would LOVE to have 2x FOPs campaign, but for current elites only

YUP. It's pretty ridiculous. A roundtrip ticket in K class will give me more than 50K miles. Two of these will almost get me a roundtrip F award to Japan But too bad the campaign ends in May. I really have to change my travel plan if I want to get these bonuses.
You sure you don't want to come back to bank up some miles? Oh wait you still have bunch of them and don't know how to use them

Geeze, ANA is fighting back...but can they extend the campaign a bit to cover the summer as well so JAL will follow
But I think JAL's is better. ALL fares eligible for mileage are eligible for 2x miles while NH's one is not...

Why do you keep accumulating miles on your JALCard? Why not just put them all on your SFC?
