"Home" country re-entry question
When you return to your home region, I understand that once you touch 'home soil' you can't leave the country.
But that doesn't apply when you start out, right?
Specifically, once JL joins and is approved for xONEx, would
NRT-KUL-NRT-SFO to start off be legal?

No, you'd have to do NRT-KUL-HKG-SFO as you cannot use NRT as a hub if originating in Japan (except for domestic flights, but most of those operate from HND instead of NRT).

Starting XONEX's in a hub country is rarely a good idea.
I'd have loved to have started my most recent LONE3 from the UK, but simply could not avoid needing to transit LHR in my journey, so has to move the origination across the channel to France.

Try downloading the RTW Planner from:

It should tell you what is legal and what not. It may not be updated to include the new additions and the exit that will be effective April 1.
