U.S. carriers compete for new slots at Tokyo's Haneda airport
The top three U.S. carriers have announced bids for new slots at Tokyo's Haneda International Airport as part of a push to increase daily nonstop flights to the Japanese capital ahead of the 2020 Olympic Games and beyond.
The extra slots for U.S. airlines were unlocked after Japan reached an agreement with the U.S. Air Force to open up new flight paths around a nearby U.S. air base, a move needed to boost Haneda movements in the run-up to the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
Haneda is located closer
to downtown Tokyo than the capital's other international airport Narita, and
flies to more destinations throughout Japan, making it attractive for both business
travelers and tourists.
United Continental
Holdings Inc is bidding for six slots, Delta Air Lines Inc for five slots and
American Airlines Group Inc for four.
Thursday is the deadline
for applications to the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Completion of an aviation
agreement between the United States and Japan is expected later this year,
United said. The new routes would launch for the 2020 summer flying schedule,
once the U.S. Department of Transportation awards the slots.
United wants to fly to
Haneda from its hubs at Newark Liberty, Chicago O'Hare, Washington Dulles, Los
Angeles International, Houston George Bush and Guam. The flights from Newark,
Los Angeles and Guam would be new routes operated by Boeing 777 and 787
aircraft, while the flights from the other three hubs would be shifted from
Narita.
Under the proposal, United
said it would connect to 37 destinations in Japan from Haneda with its joint
venture partner All Nippon Airways (ANA).
Industry analysts say a
recent sale of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft to ANA may have weighed in the decision
to grant more flying rights for U.S. airlines into Haneda, which airlines
compete for aggressively due to the airport's proximity to the Japanese
capital, a major center for global commerce.
Delta is proposing daily
flights from Seattle, Detroit, Atlanta and Portland, Oregon, and twice-daily
service between Haneda and Honolulu. American has requested a daily flight from
Las Vegas and Los Angeles and twice-daily from its hub in Dallas.
