ORD-NRT with NH in J

[wsssaero]

I believe its something to do with Japan's regulations on electronic devices. Both ANA and JL timetables mention this.

Hi:

Can I check with you if the NH crew stopped you from taking photos before take off and after take off? As in when the plane is still on the ground or on the ground?
The last time I took ANA, they were very strict about taking photos when the plane is on the ground and can only take 5 minutes after the seat belt sign is off.

Thank you,
YC

Never had a problem on NH.

I think I was once stopped on JL as well.

Me too. But after takeoff it was fine to take pics.

yongchau, if you watch the pre-take off safety video, it's quite clear one is not allowed to take pictures before and dutring take-off. I tried to take some pictures of the cabin before take off and was told not to. Just specific airline reguulation. On SQ, I would be happily snapping away.

I had exactly the same menu as you did flying NH JFK-NRT! Delicious!

Your pictures will help me remember meals.

Wanted to take pictures but traveling light this trip.

No laptop or camera. Only iPhone.

Had to be switched off for flight. Doh!!

You can turn your iPhone's Airplane mode on..... the camera function still available on this mode....

from my experience from this flight: NOP
I managed to take picture while the plane still taxiing or climbing.... no problem with the crew...
Taxiing, taking off, climbing, cruising, decending, even landing, no problem at all....
Just be discreet...

Very informative TR, Dent@SUB. Thanks!

Thanks Lie_flat_seatlover
For me, I like NH Club ANA seat a little bit more than SQ SpaceBed....
once again, this is only my preference....

I have just finished my first NRT-JFK-NRT on NH J class.

Agree with you NH Club seat is better than SQ SpaceBed.

I like in particular the 3 buttons they provide for Seat, Lounge or Sleep.

Hehe, aunty P is wondering why her pictures on the 77W didn't turn out as nice as yours thanks for sharing

[Dent@SUB]

Maybe its just me, but having never been to a UA Red Carpet Lounge... I was half expecting the carpet to be red .... i got a bit of a surprise when i saw the grey carpet in the pics!

Thanks for the TR, very informative!

Thanks matt_will_fix_it
For sure, you won't find red face inside the lounge....
(remember the 2 drink voucher I've mentioned??? ?)

Nice trip report and some great pics!

What are your thoughts on seat comfort compared to SQ?

Thanks for sharing Dent@SUB.

I look forward to my own NH 77W ride in about a month's time and this makes me even more eager.

LOL!
