How early can I get to the airport in advance of my flight?

Hi All,

We're taking a Singapore Suites overnight flight from Singapore to Narita, and that flight lands at 8AM. Our next flight is our final flight home, JL002 HND-SFO, which leaves just after midnight, technically the next day, 16 hours later. Our plan is to spend the day in Tokyo eating and.... well... mostly eating.

I'm thinking of taking the bus from NRT to HND, checking in at the airport, showering in the JAL lounge, dropping our bags off there, and then heading into Tokyo for the day. Will there be an issue arriving at 9AM or 10AM in the morning for the midnight flight to use the facilities?

Assuming this is okay, it seems like the best way to have a morning shower and get rid of our bags before heading out to the city for the day. Good plan?
