Thanks all!
"took a train..." From the aorport diagram I didn't see train, but still look like it's not a long line waiting like the ones at the immigration. We will check in from HGH (Hangzhou, China) on ANA to arrive in KIX on a UA award ticket, then on another ticket on UA to fly from KIX to ORD. I am pretty sure in HGH NH will not be able to check us in 1)because it a separate ticket, 2) NH may contract someone else do the check in, so it may not be able to check the UA record. So we prepare to hold our (e) ticket until arrival in KIX.
If in the case we miss the flight, will UA put us on a later depart flight to HNL?
