Japan Airlines (JAL) announced the JAL Doraemon Jet 2013 couple of days ago but has kept the actual livery a "secret". But thanks to spy shots on Japanese aviation site FlyTeam and the inflatable JAL Doraemon Jet toy, we were able to get a sneak peak of the livery. But today the JAL Doraemon Jet finally took off and JAL has finally officially unveiled the special livery with a Japanese press release.

Japan Airlines (JAL) has just announced it will be flying a Boeing 767-300ER painted with special Doraemon livery domestically in the coming months. This is to promote the 2013 Doraemon movie: Nobita's Secret Gadget Museum scheduled to be released on March 9 2013.
