It will create significant pain for BA and Virgin flying to Japan, China and East Asia.

For Japan or Korean it might even require a stop in ANC as in 1970s.
The biggest pain will be flights to Japan. Those to China and Korea would be an extra 500-1000 miles to take a more southern route. Not insignificant.
