NRT t1 does, but it's automated (aka separate PNR +1 won't work. Unknown about same PNR +1).
This is an excellent point -- HND security screening has been awful since COVID -- and still is as they have not opened both north and south areas yet -- while NRT continues to be normal (fast) -- saving on average 30 minutes for us -- more than making up for the transit time.... If you want a Disney line experience --fly from HND -- NRT continues to be as efficient as ever with priority security -- which has still not reopened at HND... Of course the wait time varies by time of day - but for the international terminal it pretty much is packed all day. As a couple that does this monthly we now prefer NRT -- even though it's so much further from home -- but it's actually quicker in the end...
