AA from SEA to HND would compliment JAL to NRT. Does AA have an aircraft that can fly nonstop from MIA to HND?
While I would like it - I seriously doubt it is a possibility to have SEA-HND. That route is already served by ANA and I don't think they feed enough into SEA to go head-to-head. Their commitment to the SEA focus that was announced with the AS OneWorld acceptance seems to have stalled out.

I would be pretty happy if one of the OW carriers made PDX a real hub again.
