I do have to laugh at how my presence on this forum is so closely tracked by those who can't stand that I dominate it.

If I were a betting man, I would go with #5does this plane go to paris said:"I'm actually world traveling and close to major world events."
Here are my guesses.
1. He's in Jakarta telling the Indonesian Government how to search for the lost AirAsia Flight.
2. He's in West Africa explaining how Delta will do extremely well with the Ebola scare since the CDC is located in ATL.
3. He's trying to meet with Putin in the Crimea region to set up oil deals for Delta's oil refinery.
4. He''s in Oslo demanding to speak to the Nobel Prize Committee wanting to know why his AirlineForum postings didn't win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
5. He's flying around the world on a stand by basis eating wonderful coach meals served on Delta plates and reviewing them Bon Appetite Magazine.

I don't predict that AA will get the frequency, but if DL was a lock to keep it, then I doubt the DOT would go thru the motions of a new route selection proceeding.
I get why HA wants the frequency, but awarding it to an airline that primarily carries vacationing Japanese beach tourists makes a mockery of the premise of opening Haneda to long-haul flights: Everyone assumes that HND is the preferred airport for business travelers. If that's true, then those scarce frequencies should be awarded to airlines that fly business travelers between the USA mainland and Japan (and vv), rather than catering to Japanese tourists (no matter how much money they spend in Hawai'i on vacation).
As for the schoolyard taunt, "if DL loses, then expect to see these 767s used from MIA in its quest to crush AA's MIA-Latin America machine," I have to say - Who gives a flying &@#$? I'm no apologist for Parker and Kirby - I believe that they're no different from all the other bastard executives that labour groups despise - but I'm certain that Parker and Kirby aren't scared in the least that their application to fly LAX-HND might free up a couple of 767s at Delta.
