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.

Alaska Airlines will offer two new Asia routes next year, as it begins the process of combining its operations with Hawaiian Airlines.

Alaska announced new routes Tuesday as part of a plan to boost international flights over the next several years.
