When will they decide whether to delay/cancel my flight?

It depends on the circumstances. Sometimes it can happen right before departure time.

Although decisions sometimes have to wait until right before departure due to changing circumstances, we'll do everything we can to announce a decision as early as possible when inclement weather is expected.

Decisions are posted on the JAL website as soon as they are made.

You can check the latest info on flights starting two days before the scheduled departure date using the "Departures and Arrivals" search.

We'll notify you as soon as possible of delays, cancellations, and other status changes.

Simply provide an email address or mobile number with your booking or download and set up the JAL app to receive notifications.

Getting the latest info on delays and cancellations

You can always find the same info provided by the call center on the JAL website, even when phone lines are busy.
