NRT-MEL Which carriers?
I'm looking for a flight from Tokyo to Melbourne.
By searching from skyteam web site, no any result returns. Then I tried to search from each carrier's web site directly. I found that Korean air and China Southern are candidates for me. Is there any other skyteam member that flies this route? I'd like to put miles on my DL account.

There are no airlines that fly direct NRT-MEL. QF used to, then canned it mid last year. JL was thinking about replacing it, but that's unlikely to happen now. You'll have to connect somewhere.
Using SkyTeam, looks like the only one stop options are China Southern via Guangzhou or Korean Air via Seoul.

For places like Australia it is easy because there is so little service that I just happen to know the answers. It is the result of too much time spent here on FT.

There used to be a SkyTeam Timetable application. The link went away from their webpage but if you search for the term timetable you'll get this link: http://www.skyteam.com/go/timetables.html.
I tried on-line version.

Although I specified the date and time that Korean Air operates, it can't find the flights.

The database is not up-to-date?
