I *thought* that at one point somebody reported that Haneda-Australia slots were out there and that Virgin Australia was gunning for them. No idea what happened to that entire discussion...

Maybe because neither JL nor NH wants a slot to Australia

There are more profitable markets out there.

So the 5 remaining foreign carrier slots will probably go to the US? If that's the case DL might get 3, HA 1, and AA 1

Although I am hoping for DL 3 and AA 2
