Still showing old F for my upcoming early May flight on NRT - ORD.
Will be pleasantly surprised if it ends up as The Suite but wont expect it / count on it.
My only other time on NH F was similar (NRT - IAD back in 2014, that route still had old F instead of what was then new F aka First Square

Seems like 792 has been on the ground for a week at HND. Looks like this has caused quite a few swaps in the schedule. Fingers crossed it stays that way for a couple of more days as I am on NH107 soon which has been getting more tails with the new product as a result.

HI All,
Trying to find best option for 2 seats together.
Have upcoming UA award flight to HND that I believe there could be a (small) chance that the equivalent ANA flight on my day of travel releases J awards to UA, so I am trying to think ahead here in case I can switch from UA J to ANA J.
ANA main booking site shows the flight in question is 77W with The Room/Suite.
1) This is best indication of current configuration, right? less than a month out, so probably reasonably accurate baring last minute maintenance issue?
2) Per both ANA and EF seats maps, row 9, 13, 15, 17, 19 E/F are all available. Are either of these better for a couple wanting to sit together? There also appears to be some scattered "kiddie corner" seats around.
Thanks guys!

I've done 19 E/F before and it's great. Less noise in the mini cabins and hardly any foot traffic.

I DID IT.... Switched from UA ORD IAD HND to ORD NRT in The Room. I am very excited!! 
Question, UA tells me I have to contact ANA for seat assignments. I have ANA PNR. What's the easiest way to do this? Call or try on web?
Second question. 5 E/F are open. This is only two seats in J "mini front cabin." That still my best best? Seat map is pretty wide open with 2 seats together in both middle and sides across whole cabin.
Thanks all!!

EDIT
The FT picture upload isn't working for me. Here is IMGUR link. But for those that don't want to click a link the flight is NH11 on 02 March.
I appreciate any and all advice. https://imgur.com/a/nPLHp1O
Wife is 20 weeks prego. Looking for "most comfy" / "best J" experience I can give her.

On a UA award booked in F/J on the a route with the new product, if there is a day of departure swap to old cabin/product, is there anything the airport counter or ANA call center can do on day of departure to move to a flight on the following day due to the configuration swap in order to still be able to take advantage of the new product?
