I'm also doing HKG-NRT-(TPE)-HKG on the 10th. But obviously we're on the opposite flights!
1. QF: You are allowed to ticket LAX-JFK and vice versa as part of an international itinerary.

2. I booked HKG-TPE-NRT-HKG, because:

A. HKG-TPE leaves an hour later than HKG-NRT; and
B. People said the HKG-NRT was the more special of the two flights catering wise...

Also, I did NRT-TPE-HKG-TPE-NRT last month, and the load was lighter in the HKG-TPE direction (1/2 in F) vs. out of NRT.

So, why not make the switch...

PS: where are you staying?
