Um, there is no domestic business class on JAL or ANA. There are domestic business class seats, but you don’t get the typical business clsss rewards (mileage accrual or lounge access).
the link you have is economy class, by the way .

At least they are still offering a different seat (cf. "Euro business") even if it doesn't come with a J soft product (and if that's important there's still domestic F on some routes).
The link in the original post redirects me to GF with business class being selected. I'm certainly seeing the fare on JL (JPY 9,090 + JPY 1,100 fare adjustment = JPY 10,190 (~96$). And even if it isn't a true business class, the improved seat and significantly increased TP earnings certainly is worth the 1,100 yen.
The ~1,000 fee to sit in "business class" is a regular thing AFAIK.

Japan Explorer Pass (100%) is better for mileage run.

On ANA you do get business class mileage credit (it credits to MileagePlus as A fare), lounge access, and alcoholic beverages in flight. However, ANA's domestic Premium Class is 9,000 yen upcharge where JAL's is only 2,000 yen if I recall correctly.

There isn't any indication of the booking class even when reaching the payment page.
I am unable to find any info on JAL website except 'Class J' 'Class J' 'Class J'
thanks for your help!

Premium Class is considered a first class fare, not business class. ANA has no equivalent of Class J.

For one class J is not business class. It’s essentially preferred seating in economy and there are no other amenities. JAL has first class on domestic routes which is similar to united business class on international routes (IMO). This is a very standard fare since there are so many deals on domestic travel in Japan. The upgrade from basic economy to class J is 10 usd.

What is the best month to visit the islands to avoid tropical storms? I understand nobody can predict the weather, but would like to plan ahead.
I have heard that beaches in the smaller islands are nicer than the ones in Thailand, which have become overcrowded and polluted, sadly.

Flew ANA's premium class OKA-HND and the different was night and day... but that also cost about 50 percent more than the JL fare.
