Other unconfirmed rumors.....

I'm also hearing of a rumors of a nonstop Honolulu and/or Maui flight from Portland. If this turns out to be true, World club won't just be servicing Tokyo flights, but more....

That is definately getting ahead of ourselves. I think Maui and Honolulu would be a stretch since it is unlikely the market can sustain another set of non-stop flights. Hawaiian already has its Honolulu and Maui non-stops in place. We can hope.

The more likely hope would be increased service to Newark on Continental (it is just rotten now) as well as a possible Memphis hub flight to Portland to connect to the Tokyo flight. This might even persuade Alaska to increase some of its flights to certain destinations like Las Vegas. Let's hope the ripple effect is a bump in quality air service.
