American to become first US carrier to operate continental US-Haneda service

American Airlines stated (16-Feb-2011) it would be the first US airline to launch service between the continental US and Tokyo Haneda International Airport since the US and Japan signed an open skies agreement in Oct-2010 with the launch of New York JFK-Tokyo Haneda service on 18-Feb-2011 - see Route Changes Table for more information. In addition to its new service to Haneda, American will continue to provide service to Tokyo Narita International Airport from New York-JFK, Chicago, Los Angeles and Dallas/Fort Worth. Japan Airlines will codeshare on the American Airlines operated service. [more]
