JAL sets up 3G flight booking

------------------------------------------------------------
   Japan Airlines, the largest airline based in Japan, has begun to enable
   booking over NTT DoCoMo's next-generation iMode cellular phones.

   Not all JAL flights can be booked this way, but Hawaii routes can, as
   well as flights to Guam/Saipan and Seoul. JAL has more flights to Hawaii
   than rival ANA or any U.S. carrier serving Japan-Hawaii routes.

   Tickets booked by iMode can be paid by credit card or at a convenience
   store.

   DoCoMo has been leading the world in rollouts of third generation (3G)
   cellular phones. The devices are effectively telephones and computers
   rolled into one piece of hardware, they have small screens, and they are
   constantly connected to the Internet.

   In other next generation ticket booking news, Singapore Airlines has
   become the latest Asia-Pacific carrier to permit Internet check-in.
