Hawaiian’s 12 weekly flights to Tokyo Haneda, the airport closest to the Japanese capital's city center, will continue and expand to the airline's pre-pandemic frequency of 14 flights per week, said Sprague, who was in New York Tuesday for Alaska’s first investor presentation since it acquired Hawaiian.

Travelers from the 104 destinations across North America that Alaska flies to from Seattle, like Boise, Denver, and Kansas City, will have easy connections to the new flights. And beyond Tokyo, travelers can connect to Alaska’s Oneworld alliance partner Japan Airlines’ flights to more destinations in Asia.
