FYI, SEA-NRT was never a vestige of PA as Pan Am never flew SEA-Tokyo; this was actually UA's first Pacific route which it obtained on its own back in 1983, even before the Pan Am Pacific route purchase (1985-6). UA's first TPAC routes back in 1983 were SEA/PDX-NRT followed by SEA-HKG.

BKK however was definitely inherited from Pan Am...
