I am afraid there's not a palatable answer for you in this instance. I have arrived NRT many time,s often in J and sometimes in F, and there are often lengthy queues at Immigration when one arrives at a node time when other large airliners discharge their passengers. (Of course, it gets longer for those who forget to fill in their forms when queuing up.)

Be prepared for a later limobus or using the train - depending on your hotel destination and time of arrival, of course. JapanGuide.com has a useful set of pages, beginning here, for Narita and transportation into the Kanto area.

Is there a fast track for non-Japanese passport holders who fly in J?

Just trying to work out what limobus we will make to our hotel.
