NW does not fly scheduled 744s into PHL. They do fly NRT-JFK. Could have been a diversion or a charter. There is I believe (or at least used to) a 744 that sits overnight at JFK for about 20 hours unless it is ferried elsewhere for a quick replacement trip or charter. Perhaps that was the A/C you saw. - H
