Japan Airlines’ pushes ‘rental clothes’ to travelers at their destination ‘to reduce the weight of baggage & reduce carbon emissions’

Japan Airlines has teamed up with Sumitomo Corporation to launch a trial of a clothing sharing service, which is called “Any Wear, Anywhere.” The idea is that foreign tourists and business travelers landing in Japan on JAL will be able to rent clothes for their trip, meaning they just have to bring their underwear and socks.

Here’s how JAL describes the concept behind this service:

TSA got me at Dulles for lockpicks that I forgot were in my carry-on and they had to check with a supervisor. Got them back fortunately as they were borrowed from a co-worker and I had forgotten to return them. Still don’t know what the threat is there.

I hear plants love CO₂.

What will I be able to rent a Stetson in Tokyo?

[A Navy Vet]

Yuck. I hate even renting a Tuxedo.

[ridesthemiles]

PRICE IS RIGHT WILL HAVE TO quit giving out TRIPS TO JAPAN.

[A Navy Vet]

LOL!!

[fella]

I would still take my gold ingots in carry on.

"After landing on Maui, I’d go to my favorite thrift shop and get the clothes I needed for vacation. Then they’d go back to the thrift shop when I flew home."

That's clever, but did you just donate them back or was there a financial arrangement?

[A Navy Vet]

"What will I be able to rent a Stetson in Tokyo?"

Maybe not, but they may carry Resistol. Or maybe not since that brand is made Texas, at least my old straw cowboy hat was.

I think we’re finally due for the unisex jumpsuits for everyone all the time

On my trips to Việt Nam I travel light. Most of what I need is already there. I carry everything I do need to take with me in carry-on. I pack old clothes and stuff in a small checked bag so that I won’t be tagged as a terrorist. In Việt Nam I don’t even open that bag, just chick it again when I return to the States and put it by for the next trip..

Heard it from NASA? They spill the beans before re-asserting "climate change stuff."

Yeah, I always have a set, just in case. I have a cylinder lock cracker too in case there’s an apocalypse and I happen upon a vending machine.

Aw, you "pounced" on her. You're not alone.

"The Swedish climate activist said it would be a "bad idea" for Germany to focus on coal when nuclear power plants were already in place. German politicians looking to extend the running times pounced on the comments."

But it turns out, you are CORRECT.

[Veto!]

I’ve traveled to ,many countries but regrettably never got to Japan.

If you handed me a ticket today, I’d hand it right back to you.

[wildcard_redneck]

I wouldn’t put it past the government to demand that we board butt-naked without any luggage at all and be anesthetized while they stack us like cordwood in the planes.
