Glay Expo '99 Survival   グレイジャンボ

Glay celebrates the 10th anniversary of JAL’s Hakodate-Tokyo 
JA8170
JAL  [+]
1999

Glay is a popular Japanese Pop Rock band from Hakodate. This aircraft was unveiled in July 1999 and promoted an exhibition dedicated to the Group as well as JAL’s route from Haneda to Hakodate. Also note that the titles were in English only, a surprising move for an aircraft flying domestic sectors exclusively. Note the decals were kept longer than expected as the plane proved to be very popular. JA8170 was one of only two 747-100 that had been modified with a stretched upper deck, making it look like a -300.

All 32 teams participating in the 1998 World Cup host in France were represented on these 16 Air France aircraft, which was an official sponsor of the event. 6 long-haul aircraft were decorated alongside 10 A320 (including 2 rare -100 variants). The decals themselves were very similar with a goalkeeper on the port side and a striker on the starboard side. The jerseys -and sometimes the skin colour as well- were adapted to show each participating nation's flag colours.

Note the name of the countries were written in French on the aircraft; in the list above countries/nations are abbreviated to their standard ISO 3166 code and are listed port side|starboard side.

1997-98

The Snoopy & The Peanuts gang scheme returned in late 1997 for the ski season, this time with two aircraft as ANA increased service to the Hokkaido gateway of Sapporo. Both sides were different, and again that Winter Snoopy and friends had skis on the port side and snowboards on the starboard side. The -400D was mainly used on the Haneda-Sapporo route while the Classic SR Jumbo was assigned to the Itami-Sapporo route.

Naruwan   那魯灣

 
JA8128
1995-98

JAA Japan Asia was the JAL subsidiary in charge of flights to Taiwan (by that time JAL itself could not fly to Taiwan in its name because of diplomatic tensions with the PRC). JAA launched a drawing competition among elementary and junior high school students in Taiwan to celebrate its 20th anniversary. The winning entry represented an Ami indigenous dance; Naruwan is an Ami greeting meaning "Welcome, for we are all in the same family". The special livery was unveiled on November 19, 1995.

ANA’s highly successful Marine Jumbo, unveiled in 1993, pushed JAL to react with a strong marketing campaign. JAL’s partnership with Disney started in 1994 when the airline teamed up with Oriental Land which runs the Tokyo theme park with a license from The Walt Disney Company. The aim was to promote the Tokyo Disney Resort (opened 1983) as a leisure destination to be reached with JAL’s planes via the nearby Haneda Airport.

The first Disney planes were unveiled on August 1,1994 and started flying between Haneda, Sapporo and Fukuoka. The livery background was made of clouds with Mickey Mouse and friends seemingly leaving the Disney Castle in the usual mess, carrying heavy luggage. The characters featured were Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Donald Duck, Daisy as well as Huey, Dewey and Louie. Note both sides were different, with the same set of characters in a different set up.

Note JA8170 was one of only two 747-100 that had been modified with a stretched upper deck, making it look like a -300. The scheme was almost identical on 767s and 747s, and the thinner routes served by the 767s permitted to increase the impact of the campaign countrywide. The cabins of these planes were fitted with customized "Disney on Tour" headrest covers and Disney-branded glassware.

The yellow version was the most common of the Super Resort Express variants with no less than 7 747. Note JA8105 was an early-built -200 series with only 3 windows on the upper deck; on the contrary both -100 series painted in the special scheme were later built models with the full row of windows.

Every October since 1986/87 British Airways organizes a special flight to Orlando on behalf of the Dreamflight charity launched by now retired flight attendant Patricia Pearce. Volunteering cabin crew take several children with serious illness or disability, without their parents, on the holiday of a lifetime at the Disneyland theme park in Florida.

The aircraft operating theses services usually have small multi-colour titles added above the wings (2004 was the exception with burgundy titles); the 10th, 20th & 25th Dreamflights also had appropriate special markings. Note the design of the titles has been varying only subtly over the years. The titles typically remain on the aircraft just a few days/weeks; on some occasions it was a few months, and in 2009/10 a whole year (*).
