Transiting Japan
Has any one gone through transiting Japan with all non-rev tickets? How was the process? I'm looking at IAH-NRT (UA) then to SGN/HAN (ANA). There's only 1 flight to SGN and HAN after the NRT arrival so I'm a bit nervous.
Any insight helps, thank you!

I did once pre covid Bkk-nrt-Jfk. Had to clear immigration and customs in Nrt then check in at the counter for the next segment. Had no issues at all. On my first visit, I stayed in Tokyo for a few days. In and out on non rev tickets. Again no issues. As long as you leave enough time to clear immigration coming in then security and immigration going out, you should be fine. Do you have privileges on JAL or Vietnam Airlines? I’m a bit ocd when I travel internationally on a zed so I get as many zeds as possible.

Whoops, I meant transiting during these 'unprecedented times'. I've gone through Narita before, but I wasn't sure how it is now with the ban on tourism. I don't think anyone can leave the airport without a tour group right now.
Unfortunately no agreements with JAL and Vietnam Airlines.
