Hawaiian Airlines praises expanded access to Tokyo

Hawaiian Airlines, which flies daily between Haneda and Honolulu International Airport, inaugurates daily service between Honolulu and Tokyo's Narita International Airport in July.

HONOLULU – Hawaiian Airlines congratulated the U.S. government on reaching an agreement with the Government of Japan for expanded access to Haneda International Airport in Tokyo. The aviation agreement finalized in Tokyo and allows U.S. air carriers to fly into and out of Haneda during daylight hours. It also paves the way for two additional slot pairs, one daytime and one nighttime, between Haneda and U.S. cities.

“As the premier carrier between Tokyo and Honolulu, we are well acquainted with the importance of strengthening open skies agreements between Japan and the United States,” said Mark Dunkerley, president and CEO of Hawaiian Airlines. “This accord reached will mean increased traffic from Tokyo to points in the United States, which in turn creates American jobs and improves convenience and choice for air travelers.”

Hawaiian Airlines remained the nation’s top carrier for punctuality in 2015, as reported by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), marking the airline’s 12th consecutive year holding the title.

“We have more than 5,500 employees at Hawaiian Airlines, and it’s thanks to their commitment and hard work that we have led the nation in on time performance every year since 2004,” said Mark Dunkerley, Hawaiian Airlines’ president and chief executive officer.

Hawai’i’s largest and longest-serving airline provides daily non-stop service to Hawai’i from 11 gateway cities in North America and ten cities throughout Asia and South Pacific using Airbus A330-200 and Boeing 767-300 aircraft, making it the only carrier to offer wide-body, twin-aisle aircraft for all transpacific flights.
