Hey, why aren't the Japanese whalers getting the whales in their own waters? Lots of news releases about whale watching tours in southern Okinawa. Whales aplentiful! But will the Japanese take the whales from their own waters first? "NO, let's take everyone ele's first!"

Yeah, but the lounge has comfortable seating and free drinks! Great place to spend the 4-1/2 hour layover waiting for the flight to Hawaii. No need to spend $5 per beer on the concourse. And United still has two free checked baggage on international flights. So does ANA on flights…
