I've been looking for ANA availability in first, but there is only one flight that would still allow a connection to my TG flight. So far, I have not seen any availability in ANA first. So I guess the question is would there be a big difference between global first and businessfirst and is it worth the extra flight segment?

Thank you for the information
I have another suggestion. How about ANA in C SFO-NRT, or LAX-NRT? If it's their new C product it's about as good as UA GF (I'd say service and soft product way better on ANA, hard product perhaps slightly better on UA), and loads better than BF.
