DAL applies to DOT for Haneda service.

Well you could say that ANA and JAL have that covered for Star and Oneworld. Looks like the skyteam needs some slots to compete fairly with those alliances...... just sayin....

Oh brother, another Delta Pilot that KNEW Delta was hiring, or another Delta pilot that KNEW the JAL and Delta alliance was a done deal. Lol, I sure am glad you Delta guys on FI know so much. I know you are still licking your wounds from being jacked in the butt by American, but come on, Let it go!

Depends. Star and One world will have access though their partners.

I believe ANA and JAL do not serve the US out of Haneda yet, so they are not covered, they may start service but I think they want their US partners to start the route.

Just like BA has at LHR, JAL and ANA have the majority of slots at Haneda, and some of that should be divested, to make it fair. If they are going to use it as an INTL airport, then that is the way it goes. And a few years ago, China Airlines(Taipei), was flying 744s from TPE to HND, and onto HNL. That was recently put back to NRT, but for years they were using that airport to fly to the US---HNL.

All Taiwanese airlines continued to use Haneda after Narita opened. It was due to their problems with the PRC.

Actually this is the best choice for some of these slots!

So should some of the former NWA slots at NRT be divested to make it "fair"? That's laughable.

What can us Delta people say....

We Like Sluts!!

Late night ones, open-ended ones, tightly controlled.......

Hal! Hal! Hal!

1st off, NWA had 5th Freedom rights, and not as many slots as you think at NRT. But compared to JAL and ANA, NWA was a distant third, with a few large pushes each day. But, we are talking about HND. A lot of airlines have slots at Gatwick in London, but as soon as LHR opened up, (originally TWA and Pan Am had exclusive rights at LHR--converting to AA and UAL later) BA had to give up some slots. HND is a domestic only airport with 95% of the slots going to JAL and ANA, and now it is open for INTL service. That means that they have to give up some slots to make it fair. DL now has the "rights" to fly from Tokyo, and they actually originated in HND long ago before NRT was even built. If you think DL should divest some NRT slots, maybe that would be fine as long as the were traded equally for HND slots. That was the original deal when NWA gained the rights anyway......And, if you really want to laugh, go look at yourself naked in the mirror.
