Thank you so much

Just a note, Air Premia flies from Newark and it is a Low Cost Carrier. No online check-in, long lines for check-in/security even if you are in Premia42. Service is much better than the US carriers though.

Realize you want Non-Stop but another option for you to consider is a business class ticket to Tokyo from NYC. ANA/JAL/United have multiple daily flights so perhaps easier to snag 2 business class tickets. Easy to get a fairly inexpensive Asiana or Korean Air flight from NRT to ICN/GMP as that is a short flight.

Good luck.
