JAL Group announced that effective November 13, 2025, cabin crew members across six JAL Group airlines, along with approximately 14,000 airport service staff at 56 domestic and 40 overseas airports (including partner company employees), will have the option to wear sneakers while on duty. “Long hours on foot and frequent walking are integral to cabin crew and airport staff duties. Previously limited to black leather shoes, heels, or pumps; the official uniform will now include solid black sneakers as an alternative,” JAL Group said, adding that change aims to reduce physical strain and enhance comfort, enabling staff to deliver attentive and approachable service performance throughout their shifts.
Rolls-Royce reiterated guidance on November 13, 2025 for operating profit of between 3.1 billion pounds and 3.2 billion pounds ($4.2-$4.3 billion), a rise of at least 24% on last year. “Strong performance across the group, driven by our actions and strategic initiatives, was in line with our expectations. This builds further confidence in our full year 2025 guidance,” CEO Tufan Erginbilgic said in a statement.
