I love Narita, if only because of the lounge and the excellent Delta staff who work there. Hopefully, all of the staff would be transferred to Haneda and a proper Sky Club would be constructed. Regardless, if Delta gets approval this is the end of an era; not just for Delta's presence at Narita, but also United because they're proposing moving flights over to HND from NRT.

The American Lake: RIP.

It's also kind of amazing that Delta isn't proposing a return to New York from Tokyo, if it gets HND slots.
If Delta moves to Haneda, MNL and SIN have three options (in order of likelihood, IMO):

1. Terminate

2. Migrate to SEA/LAX direct

3. Move to ICN
