Delta dtw Detroit haneda new flight schedules

Delta Air Lines flight schedules for new daily non stop flights between Tokyo's Haneda Airport and Detroit DTW. The new flights, which begin Jan. 29, 2011, will be available for sale to customers beginning Saturday, July 17 at delta.com and through other ticketing channels. Flights are scheduled as follows, subject to government approval:

The importance of Delta's application is underscored by the fact that Delta's SkyTeam alliance is the only global network without a significant competitive presence at Haneda. The two other major alliances serving Tokyo-Haneda – Star and oneworld – have Japanese partners that dominate service at the airport, with large hubs and extensive networks across Asia. Awarding Delta new slots to Haneda would add a third major airline alliance flying between the airport and the U.S., increasing competition and benefits to consumers.
From Detroit, new service to Haneda will boost Delta's Eastern U.S. gateway to Asia, building on recently added flights to Seoul and Hong Kong, expanded service to Shanghai and long-standing flights to Tokyo-Narita and Nagoya. Delta's hub at Detroit, featuring a state-of-the-art 121-gate terminal designed for international connections, will provide one-stop service to Haneda for customers in 106 U.S. cities.
