HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established originally in Oct 1952 as a private company and was reorganized in Oct 1953 as a government-owned company according to the Japan Airlines Law.  In Nov 1987, the government stake (then 34%) was entirely sold off and the firm was privatized.  In Oct 2002, when the firm (JAL) integrated with Japan Air System (JAS, domestic flights operator), the group formed a holding company, Japan Airline Corporation.  The subject changed the corporate name to Japan Airlines International Co Ltd in Apr 2004.  This is the nation’s largest airline company, vying with All Nippon Airways (ANA).  The amalgamation with JAS bred strife in management over the safety operations and series of safety troubles followed.  This led to the decrease in domestic passenger who fled to ANA.  The firm declared bankruptcy on 19/Jan/2010 and filed protection under the Corporate Rehabilitation Law to the Tokyo District Court the same day.

(Bankruptcy and Filing Procedures): On 19/01/2010: Japan Airlines Corp, Japan Airlines International Corp & JAL Capital Co Ltd jointly filed rescue & protection proceedings under the Corporate Rehabilitation Law to the Tokyo District Court.  The Court rendered decision to commence the reorganization proceedings on the same day.  The liabilities of Japan Airlines International Co Ltd are reported at: Yen 1,527,919 million.  All the executives resigned the same day.  The same day, ETIC (Enterprise Turnaround Initiative Corp declared to provide support to JAL companies.  The court approved and concluded on 28/03/2011.

On 25/06/2010: Japan Airlines Corp declared to amalgamate two firms, Japan Airlines International Corp & JAL Capital Co Ltd, into one entity in order to streamline operations, including cumulating the assets & credits, and facilitation of debts cutback negotiations.
