Man, we have JAL award flights from Tokyo to NYC (coming home from trip to Saipan) but it’s still a bit complicated. We’ll fly from Saipan to Seoul. Then we need to transit Tokyo for either:

· JL 8 NRT (6:30PM)

· JL 6 HND (11:05AM) – Me in First, wife and kid in business

I would love to take JL 6 (would be my very first 1st class experience) but it may require a long overnight layover in HND. I don’t think my wife will be happy with that. I didn’t realize there is not much option flying into HND early morning from East Asia.

JL 90 GMP-HND (7:55AM – 9:55AM) – This would be ideal but it seems a bit tight and not sure if it will be reinstated by December. Any thoughts?

Peach Air ICN-HND (10:40PM – 12:55AM) could work but we should probably stick to major carriers?

We will probably have carry-ons only. So unless JL 90 works, it looks like NRT is better option?
