I will truly miss Asiana...they were my favorite United partner in Asia. Pre-Covid a truly elegant lounge, nice J and Y products, and civilized staff. While Air China and Junyao are perfectly fine for short haul trips, I'm not rather fond of their longhaul product. Eva Air is better, but does not add much incremental connecting opportunities.
For this transpacific passenger truly a loss---especially on top of the departure of the UA NRT hub. The net/net will be a vast increase in UA passengers changing planes in PEK/PVG...at a time when flights to/from China are capacity constrained.
In an alternative universe UA might need to reconsider using ancient route authorities from NRT and HKG to fill in the gaps...
