I haven't heard of any significant growth elsewhere in the network for these planes to get redistributed.

I'm curious, what interport flying do we still do out of NRT?

MNL, SIN for sure. I think PVG also?

Just Manila and Singapore now. I suspect that if we get a longer range A350 we'll fly SIN out of SEA and drop the NRT-SIN.

I doubt we will. Just dropped HKG and could be doing it with the 777 today. KAL is already handling the bulk of our passengers to those destinations.

I'm wondering how long Honolulu to nrt and ngo and kix will last... I think we are suspending HNL to Fukuoka.

I suppose that's true. The ICN hub and the Korean JV is killing our Pacific flying.

I'm having a hard time reconciling the doublespeak coming out of Atlanta. They say our Delta-metal international flying as well as Seattle flying is poised for growth in the coming years yet we have seen a dramatic reduction in Pacific flying. They have also said domestic flying is saturated.
