True, but NRT-GRU already exists (it is NRT-JFK-GRU, so nothing new). CX has HKG-CDG/FRA/AMS/FCO so those are already served from Asia; more interesting would have been NRT-MAD, NRT-BUD, NRT-MXP (I think JL used to serve more cities in Europe but has cut back). Initially I thoiught JL adds a lot of new cities and routes, but it really doesn't. Their Hawaii-Japan services is probably the biggest change (it allows adding Hawaii and not just HNL with onward travel to Japan).
