Any idea if our absurd amount of luggage would be problematic for the limousine bus? I've looked into a private minivan transfer and the costs are ludicrous ($500), so I'd prefer to avoid that if possible. At those prices we'd be better off flying into HND the evening before and using JAL ABC to send our bags along to NRT for around $100.

Once I give her the lowdown on transferring between airports, she may be more amenable to a 10h stop at NRT.
Hi,

I think the limousine bus can take 2 pieces of luggage per person ( 30kg max) in the baggage compartment ( plus a carry on IIRC)

Apart from the 2 JAL F lounges ( main and satellite) there is the Cathay lounge ( poor), American airlines ( pretty good for AA) and Qantas ( good also) so good lounge hopping opportunities if desired.
