As Moomba says, perhaps they're withholding seats until closer to the flights?
Christep is giving some good advice in regards to the quality of the F product within the US. 767s are best on AA.

In regards to JL, this is what I see:

[KVS Availability Tool 5.1.2/Platinum - Sabre: Availability/GTC/US-CRPD1]
Code:
JFK  New York John F Kennedy Int'l NY US [KJFK]
NRT  Tokyo Narita JP [RJAA]
MON  14 Jun 2010

Carrier    Flight  From  Depart    To    Arrive    A/C  St  Availability
---------  ------  ----  --------  ----  --------  ---  --  -----------------------------------------------------------
JL         5       JFK   13:10     NRT   16:10 +1  773  0   F6 A0 C9 J9 D0 I9 Y9 W9 E2 B9 H9 K9 M0 L0 V0 S0 N0 Q0 O0 G0
So it seems they are not making D or A available yet. But if you waitlist I guess it will come through so this is nothing you can do online.
