American Begins Daily LAX-HND Service 11 Feb 2016 w/ 787-8 (after delays)

not sure why people are not a fan of the timings. most need to remember the current US-haneda restrictions that only allow flights at odd hours. Narita flights continue to exist for connections, as these flyers don't care how far they are from downtown Tokyo.

TSA, GMP, SHA from HND is a tough sell given the directs to TPE, ICN, PVG. this HND flight is for Tokyo O&D and that can fill a 787-8. Other flight times require a long sit in HND which is a waste for an expensive and fuel efficient plane.

Timings work for O&D, the late night departure from Tokyo helps adjust to the new time zone and the evening departure from LAX is a nice change from the late morning narita flights.
