Odd that they filed 787 for LAX-HND and 772 for DFW-HND. I'd have thought they'd filed for 772 for LAX-HND given that there's a large O&D between the two cities (and DL filed 772 for LAX-HND too).
This is quite shocking - even with the current night time slots, from
Star-Telegram:
Currently, American operates daily service between Los Angeles and Tokyo Haneda with flights arriving in Tokyo at 11 p.m. and departing at 1:30 a.m. for Los Angeles. The airline said the flights, which started in February, have been extremely successful with a load factor of 91.5 percent.
