flew short haul JL flight GMP-HND on my birthday on J. Nothing special happened to me, except on the last moment before they were about to finish the service in preparation for landing. I got a handwritten postcard with happy birthday message as well as a small gift bag containing a small plastic plane model and the 2 small snacks (arare?) that they usually give out at the start of J class drink service. So yes, what you get depends on your routes and class, but still made my day anyway.

Still have the World of Beauty so not entirely gone from the old fashioned mindset. And all 11 pilots in the pilot calendar are male. ミス・パイロット was an ANA show after all..

Thanks to minizian, I see the JTA calendar is now there. Although it's a flip top instead of postcard apparently.

Too bad it is all scenery photo, it will be nice if they include of the CA in Kariyushi (the current and new one is very nice) here and there since it is unique

Look like another round of "Todofuken Seal" but these time is electronic version. No more physical copy

Found that the level you achieve in the app is only backup-able if you are JMB japan region member.
Used to ask from crew during international flight for the past two version of Todofuken Seal success rate varies lol
Do they still do the international crew coaster? I am still missing the Bangkok crew tom yum.

2021 JAL calendars are starting to show up on Amazon and from the product details of one of them...
CA calendar is back!
- The first passenger calendar after the uniform renewal has been made. We have received a lot of requests, and we will reintroduce it for the first 2 years.
- Introducing our active guest crew crew who joins a new spirit with new uniforms. The first arrival of male cabin crews in 2021!

That particular male CA was used to in various PR as well as showing up on recent issue of AirStage too.

Previous CA calendars were female and the pilots calendars were (and may still be) male, as far as I've seen.
