I'm flying to HNL on 11/5. the seating is lie-flat seats and the aircraft continues on to Japan.
Do I get Delta One service including the amenity kit or just FC like the other FC flights to HNL?
The connecting flight from LAS now has a 35 minute connect so I might not make the flight if it leaves LAS late...

No business service. Service is domestic first, including the thin and messy red blankets and the tiny pillows. Only seats are the proper business seats. Only on the HNL-NGO continuation of the flight, and the same on the return, is it the business class service (with the all-dishes-on-one-tray new DeltaOne menu/service).

That's my fear. The schedule changed to leave 40 minutes later. It is the firstnflight of the day and the incoming comes in the night before but the dreaded ground hold might rear its ugly head.

at least it's the same aircraft type (and maybe even the same plane)

And yes, it only shows as J, but really is just F service. Frankly I don't understand why go through the trouble to remove the nicer blankets and pillows from the flight when it's leaving from HNL to LAX, and then restock it again at LAX. But, that is what Dullta does.

It is the same plane usually, yes. A good amount of pax are through pax on the "direct" LAX-NGO flight.

Which should be clarified was a change about 10 months ago ONLY on beach market Asia flights in D1. This is not applicable to system-wide DL 1. US 48 to Asia, to Europe, to Middle East, Africa, and South America, which maintain the standard D1 multi-course service unless the "Dine and Rest" option is chosen.

Still, I just find it cheapens the whole cabin to give out the little red blankets and tiny pillows..
