Couldn't say. We don't go to TPE out of NRT and as far as I know don't have any plans to do so. The average load factors I saw for SGN and SIN were somewhere south of 100. But I can guarantee you the HNL-GUM-NRT 76 is nearly always full and they're up-guaging that to a UAL 777. Don't hear you complaining about that. Meanwhile we're overstaffed by some 100+ flight attendants out here now thanks to this little shell game. But they've been offered positions stateside out of EWR and IAH with Oct. 28 2011 DOH. Lucky them!
