The Japanese newspaper Asahi has reported that JAL has commited to stay in OneWorld alliance.
According to the newspaper, JAL has ended talks with Delta and will officially announce it’s decision soon.
It is reported that JAL’s new CEO, Kazuo Inamori, and officials of the Enterprise Turnaround Initiative Corp of Japan has decided that switching alliances at this stage is too risky for JAL.
Apart from the cost involved with upgrading computer systems and related costs, the risk that JAL and Delta would not receive anti-trust immunity played into the decision, the Asahi reported.
Attempts by Reuters to reach JAL or ETIC spokesmen regarding this matter has been unsuccessful.
