The “JAL MYAKU-MYAKU JET” serves as the second installment in JAL’s special livery series promoting EXPO 2025. The first featured a design on an Embraer 190 operated by J-AIR.

JAL aims to use these special liveries to raise awareness for EXPO 2025, encouraging visits to the exposition and other tourist destinations across Japan.

The “JAL MYAKU-MYAKU JET” is scheduled to operate until August 2025. The airline plans to introduce a third special livery aircraft dedicated to domestic flights in the future.
