Japanese flag carrier Japan Airlines (JAL) is a member of the oneworld Alliance and flies to six destinations in the United States from Haneda.
Two of the airline's links are twice-daily operations, with New York JFK and Honolulu (HNL) receiving multiple flights each day this month.
The remaining services to Chicago (ORD), Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Los Angeles (LAX), and San Francisco (SFO) are linked on a daily basis.
Passengers looking to fly to Japan using frequent flyer miles are in luck, as Japan Airlines partners with both the American Airlines AAdvantage program and Alaska Airlines's Mileage Plan for points and miles redemptions.
US carrier American Airlines also operates an extensive route network to Japan.
The carrier's operations are mainly centered on Tokyo-Haneda, with three direct routes, the busiest of which is a double-daily service from Los Angeles.
Dallas/Fort Worth is also linked with a daily Dreamliner service, as is New York JFK (which is new for this year on American Airlines).
The carrier's only flight to Narita is a daily Boeing 777 flight to Dallas-Fort Worth, which connects passengers across the Americas via the Texas hub.
Only one SkyTeam Alliance carrier is flying between Tokyo and the United States this year, and all of the flights arrive at Haneda.
Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines flies to Japan from six of its US hub airports, offering over 52,000 seats in each direction this month. However, it has not added any new Japanese connections in the past year.
The carrier's daily service to Tokyo Haneda from its home in Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is operated by an Airbus A350-900 this month, as it was last year.
The airline's Los Angeles and Detroit (DTW) links are also flown with an A350-900. Two of the hubs feature the carrier's Airbus A330neo, Seattle-Tacoma, and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP).
Delta Air Lines' sole Boeing route to Japan this month is its link from Tokyo to Honolulu, which is served by a Boeing 767 this month, based on airline scheduling data from Cirum.
Three Star Alliance carriers currently connect the US to Tokyo, although one is on a fifth-freedom basis. Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA) operates from both of Tokyo's airports, with eight routes from Haneda and four from Narita.
New York JFK and Los Angeles to Haneda flights run twice daily, while the following six airports all receive daily flights: Chicago, Honolulu, Houston Intercontinental (IAH), San Francisco, Seattle-Tacoma, and Washington Dulles (IAD).
From Narita, ANA serves Chicago ORD, Los Angeles, and San Francisco on a daily basis and Honolulu double-daily.
One of the US carriers with the largest presence in Japan is United Airlines. The airline operates a Pacific hub in Tokyo and has recently been expanding its Narita base to include a range of non-US destinations from the island of Cebu in the Phillippines to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
In terms of Tokyo, United connects both of the city's airports to the following US gateways: Chicago, Guam, Los Angeles, Newark (EWR), and San Francisco.
Haneda is also connected to the US capital via Washington Dulles, while Narita has exclusive services to Denver (DEN) and Houston (IAH).
The carrier also operates a daily flight between Narita and Saipan (SPN) in the United States Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
Finally, Singapore Airlines also operates a Boeing 777 link from Tokyo Narita to Los Angeles.
One of the newest entrants to the US-Tokyo market is ZIPAIR. The low-cost airline is based at Narita International Airport and serves three destinations in California: Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco.
The last carrier on the list, Hawaiian Airlines , is part of the Alaska Airlines Group but not yet a member of the oneworld Alliance.
The carrier connects Honolulu to both Narita and Haneda airports, alongside links to Osaka-Kansai International Airport (KIX) and Fukuoka Airport (FUK) on the island of Kyushu.
