ANA All Nippon Airways vs Japan Airlines carry-on

ANA and JAL are nearly identical on international carry-on: 1 bag at 55x40x25 cm plus a personal item, with a combined 10 kg cap. Both Japanese majors beat Singapore and Cathay by 3 kg on total carry-on weight, which matters for camera gear and electronics. The 10 kg is combined across both items on both carriers, so neither lets you sneak a heavy laptop bag past the scale. If you fly domestic Japan on a smaller aircraft, both ANA and JAL drop size limits, so the tie holds. Pick by alliance: ANA if you collect Star, JAL if you collect Oneworld.
