NEW YORK — Airline passengers who find long-distance flights a pain in the back will soon be able to get some good vibrations.
Beginning in April, Japan Airlines will offer automatic massage chairs for first-class passengers between New York and Tokyo.
Developed in cooperation with the Marutaka Co., a medical equipment manufacturer, and Kioto Kogyo, a seat manufacturer, the JAL Sky Massage seat will be installed on Boeing 747-400s that fly the 13-hour route.
