I flew back from there just last week. A code shared JAL 747-300. Can't beat the JAL service. 02:30, I hit the call button for another Fleur du Tarn (French white wine), and someone is by my side in a flash with a smile on her face. Very impressive. Definately get to the airport early to snag an upperdeck exit row. The Japaneese don't seem to like the emergency exit rows. Must be like tempting fate.
You can do a QF flight NRT-CNS-BNE. It leaves NRT about 2 hours earlier and arrives at about the same time in BNE. If you don't mind a wierd fish dish or a pastry with meat thing for breakfast, I would highly recommend JAL.
