SNA's fare is on stand-by basis. This means you don't have to purchase the tickets before you enter Japan while ANA and OW fares require you to do so.
Some tourists may find the fare very useful.

Not so sure how many tourists on a short trip will want to hang around an airport hoping standby space is available!
