I know it's not set in stone, but it seems like ANA is consistently scheduling ORD-HND to be new config, even into June based on the website.
With ORD-NRT also getting it, it's interesting that SFO is basically not getting anything.

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 won’t 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

I feel like they were splitting it up reasonably last year, with one at ORD and one at SFO, but late last year, they started shifting all of their new equipment to ORD and this is a continuation of this. Perhaps ANA is worried about the JAL expansion, with the incoming ORD-NRT addition this year and are defending the ORD hub?

I hope not for my sake as I'm flying SFO later this year.

That doesn't make any sense. Why would they do that, when they already don't put F in LAX? That's a market they have decided to not compete in F and pulled back completely. JAL is already winning the LAX F market.

So annoying, I'm one day off on this. It does look like SFO/NRT is getting it a few times a week though.
Was really hoping for The Suite this time around since I chose NRT over HND, just for the daytime flight specifically to enjoy it more.

My routes had the Room/Suite 5 out of 7 days for both legs, and I managed to pick the two flights that didn't get loaded. :P Hopefully your return flight has better luck?
