United, Continental left out of new Tokyo routes

Posted May 7, 2010 at 2:23 p.m.

Associated Press | The Transportation Department says it plans to award four new routes to Tokyo to Delta Air Lines, American, and Hawaiian. Continental and United were left out.


The decision looks to be a big win for Delta, which gets two routes –
from Los Angeles and Detroit. Hawaiian Airlines is something of a
surprise because it is so small. It gets a route from Honolulu.
American Airlines would fly from New York.

The order issued Friday is preliminary, so the airlines can appeal.
