I know it's getting off-topic, but I wonder about the future of KE's ICN-DFW service. While there's a substantial Korean community in the Dallas area, DL has disassembled its hub at DFW, so KE has lost all its connecting traffic there. Wonder if they'll switch to IAH and connect with CO instead. But the Korean community is much smaller here in Houston.

PIA already flies IAH-MAN-Pakistan. But I think they'll probably use their upcoming 772LR for non-stops to New York, and keep IAH as one-stop. Or maybe they'll fly to JFK 4 times a week, IAH three times, or something like that.

Another non-stop Texas-Asia possibility is China Airlines. They do have IAH-SEA-TPE three times a week right now with 340s. CI doesn't have ultra-longhaul planes right now, but I think they can certainly order 772LR for non-stop TPE-New York and TPE-IAH, at least to try to catch up with EVA on their N. American service.
