NYC-TYO-HAN routing via ANA
NYC-ICN-HAN routing via OZ
I purposely left out UA but am open if you can convince me....
This would be in business or first depending on availability.
Again, I'm searching for routing, metal and comfort along the way. Once I make my decision based on your suggestions I'll do my search and destroy for award availability.
Thanks!
The only *A hubs that allow direct connections to HAN are ICN, BKK, SIN and WAW. The most direct route would be on OZ (JFK-ICN-HAN). I don't know if the JFK-ICN service has the new OZ C product.

I recently flew to SGN on the new UA F product and it was acceptable. Both the food and service on the UA premium classes seems to be improving.

But I don't know if there is a good connection on UA/CO via any of the above listed hubs.
