From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.BRITISH AIRWAYS and Japan Airlines will today unveil a wide-ranging link-up bringing together the two biggest carriers in Europe and Asia. BA and JAL are to form a marketing alliance that will enable the two airlines to code-share, link their frequent-flyer programmes and share airport facilities.
The agreement could be a prelude to JAL becoming a full member of the Oneworld alliance BA forged with four other international carriers last year. The aim of the BA-JAL link-up is to boost passengers and revenues at a time when air travel is slowing down.
