Japan Airlines is launching a two-year humanoid robot trial at Tokyo's Haneda Airport starting May 2026, partnering with GMO AI and Robotics to deploy Chinese-made Unitree G1 bots for baggage handling, cargo movement, and aircraft cabin cleaning. The pilot is JAL's response to Japan's severe labor shortage and surging tourism — Haneda processes over 60M passengers a year. Each robot costs around $13,500 and runs 2-3 hours on a charge. The future of aviation, or expensive theater?
