The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from the parking area to runway 34L at RJAA Narita International Airport, a movement that required 14 minutes and covered 2 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 34L, the aircraft accelerated over a takeoff distance of 2,420 m, representing 60 % of the runway, and lifted off at 174 kt. Ambient conditions were 23 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 56°, a cross-wind component of 6 kt and no head-wind.

The initial climb began 1 mile north-west of RJAA, climbing from 1,076 ft asl to 31,009 ft asl, an altitude gain of 29,934 ft achieved in 18 minutes while covering 126 nm.

A level cruise segment commenced 78 miles east of Asahi, lasting 109 minutes and extending over 998 nm.

A subsequent climb started at latitude 42.3530312, longitude 161.4502563, raising the aircraft from 31,016 ft asl to 32,987 ft asl, a gain of 1,971 ft in 2 minutes across 14 nm.

The next cruise leg began at latitude 42.4314079, longitude 161.7850342 and persisted for 178 minutes, during which 1,725 nm were flown.

A further climb was initiated at latitude 48.0692329, longitude -158.0126801, increasing altitude from 32,964 ft asl to 35,000 ft asl, a rise of 2,036 ft in 2 minutes while covering 15 nm.

The following cruise segment started at latitude 48.0792007, longitude -157.601532 and lasted 183 minutes, encompassing 1,556 nm.

Descent began 10 miles north-west of Point Arena, California, with the aircraft descending from 35,004 ft asl to 10,999 ft asl, a loss of 24,005 ft in 15 minutes over 106 nm.

A brief cruise over Colma, California, lasted 2 minutes and spanned 8 nm.

The next descent segment started 1 mile north-west of San Mateo, dropping from 10,999 ft asl to 4,002 ft asl, a decrease of 6,997 ft in 7 minutes across 25 nm.

A short cruise over Santa Clara lasted 3 minutes and covered 10 nm.

Climbing again 3 miles south-east of KRHV Reid-Hillview Airport, the aircraft rose from 3,979 ft asl to 6,994 ft asl, gaining 3,015 ft in 3 minutes while traveling 10 nm.

Descent continued 4 miles north of East Foothills, falling from 7,000 ft asl to 5,032 ft asl, a loss of 1,968 ft in 2 minutes over 5 nm.

A level cruise segment north of Milpitas persisted for 30 minutes, covering 90 nm.

The final descent started 1 mile east of Newark, California, with altitude decreasing from 4,999 ft asl to 1,317 ft asl, a reduction of 3,682 ft in 4 minutes across 13 nm.

On final approach to runway 28R at KSFO San Francisco International Airport, the aircraft aligned from the east on a heading of 290.0° at 4 nm and 1,300 ft agl.

Landing on runway 28R, which is 3,516 m long, the aircraft touched down with a threshold speed of 148 kt; the touchdown point was 759 m beyond the touchdown zone and the speed at that moment was 142 kt. The touchdown rate was smooth at minus 119 fpm, though the touchdown position was misaligned by 21.8 m from the centreline. Weather at KSFO was 18 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 354°, a cross-wind component of 3 kt and a head-wind component of 2 kt.

The total landing roll measured 1,407 m, representing 40 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was off by 33.6 m from the centreline.

Overall, the flight covered 4,709 nm, required 567 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 75,216 kg of fuel.
