The new flight, which will be operated with an Airbus A330-200, will replace the airline’s current night-time flight.

 

Hawaiian was also granted a night-time slot pair in May 2016 for a flight between Haneda and Honolulu four times a week and between Haneda and Kona three times a week, which is due to be launched on December 20, 2016.

 

The Japanese and US authorities agreed in February 2016 to give the two countries five day-time slot pairs and one evening slot pair each at Haneda Airport, as opposed to the current four evening slot pairs each country has.

 

Apart from Hawaiian, American Airlines has applied to operate a flight from Dallas and another from Los Angeles, Delta Air Lines has applied to operate a flight from Atlanta, one from Los Angeles and one from Minneapolis-St. Paul, and United Airlines has applied to fly from Newark and San Francisco.

 

The new schedule is as follows.
