NHBB, Delta already has an LAX to Haneda flight. It's just an inconvenient departure and arrival time--middle of the night; no public transportation into Tokyo. They are requesting and (more than likely getting) one of the new daytime arrival slots to replace their current flight. I doubt they will get an Atlanta departure. I can't imagine there would be that much demand from ATL. AA will also get an LAX departure with a daytime arrival. And, UA will get an SFO departure, convenient arrival time.
Now, your anti-Delta tirades have become as tiresome as World Traveler's "Delta Uber Alles" posts used to be. Give it a rest. Delta is a good airline. The fact that it is mostly non-union isn't really any of your business or mine. I don't understand it either, but...THEIR EMPLOYEES WERE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE FOR REPRESENTATION. They voted against having representation. (The flight attendants have voted no on more than one occasion that I know of.) It's the way democracy works. Majority rules. Please go find something else to post about. Thanks.
