Long time lurker here and I have enjoyed reading all the trip reports posted on this forum, so I thought I'd share mine.
I didn't take photos with a write up in mind. Sorry if I don't include any detailed flight images, such as menus, bathroom, amenities…etc.
ITINERARY
SFO-HND | KIX-TPE | TSA-HND-SFO
We spent about 2 weeks in Japan and 1 week in Taiwan.
SFO-HND
JAL 777 SFO-HND First Class
The food was great and the seat is very comfortable, but what stood out the most is their service and attention to detail. The flight attendants would come around every 10-15 min to make sure you have everything you need, and not in an intrusive way. Trash and dirty dishes were almost picked up immediately.
JAPAN
Tsukiji Fish Market
Shinjuku
Ice creme vending machine!
Shibuya Crossing
Hakone
Kusatsu
Asakusa Shrine
Food from the department store basement
Super hard UFO catchers
Giant octopus sign in Dotonbori
Nara
Fushimi Inari Shrine
The famous Ichiran Ramen
KIX-TPE
JAL 737 KIX-TEP Business Class
JAL lounge at KIX
Noooo, I just realized I didn’t take any photos for this leg.
Taiwan
Clean and reasonably priced business hotel near TSA
Taipei 101
Night market
Stinky tofu
The famous beef noodle!
The Taiwan photos I took are mostly food, we didn’t go to touristy places since I lived there for 6 years. We spent time eating with family, gaining 5 pounds in just one week.
Definitely check out Taiwan if you are into food!
TSA-HND-SFO
JAL 98/2 TSA-HND-SFO Business Class
TSA-HND
6 hour layover in the HND JAL Business Class lounge
Amazing curry
Very convenient locker room. We were able to check out the terminal without having to drag our luggages around.
We have been traveling for almost a day at this point, and it was very nice to be able to take a shower before traveling for another 9 hours.
Hope you guys enjoyed reading this!

Awesome trip report! I just got back from Osaka myself and loved it. Although, I found Ichiran to be a little overrated, what do you think? I think there are way better Ramen places out there. Thanks for taking the time to write this up!

Great report! JAL F looks amazing ... I've read a few reports about JAL's First Class recently, and everything from the cabin, to the food, looks incredible.
Thank you for sharing!
