Sorry AS.......I suspect it's only a matter of time until more folks catch on.
Sorry to see you go, but all understandable. Just to add a note, Alaska's partner JAL begins Seattle Tokyo service beginning 3/31/2019. Not quite sure whether partnership played a role in this new flight but surely helps.
