American, Delta and United push to finalise new Haneda flights

American Airlines has joined Delta and United in pushing US regulators to finalise their tentative awards of 12 new flights to Tokyo Haneda. American and United, in separate filings with the US DoT Tuesday, asked the regulator to dismiss objections by Hawaiian Airlines and finalise the allocation of the new frequencies. With support from American, Delta and United, the regulator is almost certain to confirm the allocation of the new Tokyo flights that it first announced in May American will receive two flights for service to Haneda from Dallas/Fort Worth and Los Angeles; Delta five flights for service from Atlanta, Detroit, Honolulu, Portland (Oregon) and Seattle; Hawaiian one flight for service from Honolulu; and United four flights for service from Chicago O'Hare, Los Angeles, Newark and Washington Dulles.<br/>
