Since, under Open Skies, BA can now serve non-EU destinations from the US, provided it has the other relevant rights, and it can serve onward destination of these flights in the US, should BA attempt to become more than a trans-atlantic airline (if we caricature it as connecting ROTW passengers to USA via LHR) and become a trans-pacific airline as well?

What are the operational and commercial pro's and con's of running a Honolulu hub? Why does nobody else at the moment?
