I can land in HND, but the HND-GMP route is currently suspended (although there might be glimmer of hope it will be reinstated by June?). I can land in NRT, but there are no overnight stays allowed (all the flights out of NRT to ICN occur before I even land). Or if I can transit to another Japanese airport, there might be flights that work. I just need at least one of the airport rules to get dropped or changed, otherwise, the combination is making for impossible connection to Korea from the US. Or maybe that was the plan?
