I found the message on ANA's website with a list of the cancelled flights:

But, beware that it is not a swap to a domestic configuration 787-9, then there is approximately domestic style food and drink service, due to lack of galley space and ovens.

My LAX-NRT and KIX-HKG flights were spared, but both my return HKG-NRT and NRT-LAX were cancelled. Now I have the dreaded HND to NRT commute, since my HKG flight now returns to HND instead of NRT (almost the same flight times). Fortunately, I have 20 hours for a layover. My plan was just to stay around NRT and explore that area for the first time (taking advantage of super cheap NRT hotel options). Now, I will be spending the night in Ginza at a very pricy 20k point Hyatt hotel, rather than a super cheap 20k point Hilton. I just can't justify rushing from HND to NRT at 21:00 just to stay at the Narita Hilton.
To make things even worse, I lost my exit-row seats on the NRT-LAX flight. I cannot sleep at all in a standard Y seat unless I am leaning forward, so now I just have to hope that there are some empty seats in the back of the plane to lie down (which seems very unlikely given the fact that they just cancelled 1/3 of the flights on that route). All I can hope for now is if I get a chance to bid on a PE seat, as I highly doubt I will get a free upgrade from my Platinum NH status.

Yep, just got notified of my HND-TSA getting swapped to 763. And they moved me from a window to an aisle, just to rub it in. 
Assume there is 0% chance of a swap back at this point?
Also assume NH, being strict Japanese and all, won't waive refund fees?
