What happened
Japan Airlines CEO Mitsuko Tottori will receive a 30% pay cut for two months, while safety manager Yukio Nakagawa and cabin services manager Junko Nakano will take 20% cuts for one month, following a domestic flight delay caused by a flight attendant failing an alcohol test. This is the third time in roughly a year that JAL executives have been penalized for crew alcohol violations, with previous instances involving pilots. Regulators have increased scrutiny, leading to a ban on crew drinking during layovers regardless of duration. The recurring nature of these incidents raises questions about the effectiveness of current accountability measures
