Actually, Tropical Storm 12W has already begun its recurve and isn't expected to make landfall, so I guess Narita would be an option. But since they're only a couple of hours away, I'd think they would just cancel or delay.
I still think it makes more sense to overfly KIX and go straight to DTW. Then they have the equipment is where it's supposed to be for the next flight.
The typhoon heading for Osaka and Kyoto, now is slowing down so I may just get out before it makes landfall. Of course, I don't know when (or if) they'll close the airport. KIX is supposed to be earthquake an typhoon proof. Part of me wanted to spend the typhoon there...
