I think the only problem is if you miss your flight because the airport is closed overnight.
Isn't the HND airside hotel currently closed?

Thoughts on booking a HKG transit (2nd daily flight ex-SFO - which I foresee being cancelled) in Dec on the way to BKK? It's the only routing with all segments in business (ICN/NRT - BKK are all TG Y). Not sure if UA will rebook me or force me to accept refund.

I don't think the 2nd daily SFO-HKG will ever come back, in the event of cancelation UA may reroute you if partner I cabin is open, better book routes currently running like EWR-NRT to make sure the it will stick.

There is no issue with transiting in NRT, but there may be an issue with TG flying in and out of NRT. I am not 100% comfortable with TG keeping their daily NRT schedule with Japan being closed to tourism.

i saw the same issue but had options via ZRH or FRA/MUC for same miles - but for me based in NYC it was only a frw more hours flight time….

I always start search 1 way. Started with ORD-WLG, then expanded destinations one at a time- AKL, CHC, ZQN did not work. Then expanded origins LAS, LAX, SFO, PSP- none worked. DEN and ORD were only 2 viable for my origin.

There are more in CA at least, SJC etc . you also don't typically need to return to your origin, like you can't depart from SFO but can return.
