JAL Narita connection
I am flying F LAX to NRT arriving NRT at 4:45pm.
Is it reasonable to schedule a NRT to ITM flight departing the same evening at 6:20pm.
It will be separate tickets, but both on JAL. The NRT to ITM segment is a frequent flyer ticket. I am wondering it I can check bags all the way through to Osaka and bypass customs and immigration at Narita?
Any assistance on timing is appreciated.

That should be enough time for you to as I remember the MCT is 70 minutes.
You are not flying these two days right?

It worked
Our flight from LAX into NRT arrived at 4pm.
Fast track to domestic flights had no one in line. We collected our bags and proceeded to JAL domestic checkin. We were in the lounge by 6pm with an hour before boarding. Had the flight been on time, we would have been just fine.
Any delays might have resulted in a late night arrival in Kyoto via Shinkansen.
Thank you for your kind assistance.
