Flying Tokyo to Seattle covers about 4,760 miles, linking Narita International Airport (NRT) with Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA); a nonstop takes roughly 10h05, with winds moving it either way. Alaska Airlines, Japan Airlines, and Delta all carry nonstop award space in the data. Aircraft logged on those nonstops include the Airbus A330-900neo and Boeing 787-9. Most award options in the data connect. Nonstops are just about 3% of the total.
Settle the cabin before the program: on a long-haul trip like Tokyo–Seattle, it moves the price most. The economy floor is a partner booking on an Alaska Airlines nonstop, with no connection to trade off against the points. Taxes on that seat are missing from the data; check the cash portion at checkout before committing. The middle step, premium economy, costs about 1.9 times economy; business costs about 2.1 times. Flexible bank points can reach Qatar Airways Privilege Club; confirm the space first, since transfers can't be undone.
Qatar Airways Privilege Club is cheapest in economy at 25,750 points on an Alaska Airlines nonstop. American AAdvantage wins premium economy at 50,000 points. Air Canada Aeroplan takes business class at 55,000 points. Its first-class fare from 85,000 points connects, which usually means first on one leg only; read every segment. Of the other 10, Alaska Atmos Rewards, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Delta SkyMiles are worth a look too.
Nonstop award space on Tokyo–Seattle spans two alliances: oneworld (Alaska Airlines, Japan Airlines) and SkyTeam (Delta). That means partner programs in both alliances have a way onto a nonstop. If you're open to a stop, the better-priced connecting awards in the data run through Los Angeles, Vancouver, and Seoul. The lowest premium-economy award here is a oneworld partner booking: Japan Airlines seats through American AAdvantage.
From the Tokyo side, Haneda (HND) sits just above the floor at 30,000 points in economy, a fair fallback when Narita dates are stripped. Landing in the Seattle area, Everett's Paine Field (PAE) starts at 59,600 points in economy, well above that floor, so it's only worth it when Sea-Tac is sold out. Haneda also logs nonstop flights to Seattle in the data. The return, Seattle to Tokyo, has its own page, since award pricing can differ by direction.
