When you're searching on Google flights, you can put a list of 5 cities into the search fields, separated by commas. The airports don't have to be anywhere near each other . In this case, I'll call this the "they're giving my husband's team the entire holiday weekend off" search 😁 ♨️ 🐷 🥘 🌮 or 🌭 for the weekend?      

I was poking around Google Flights for a friend and noticed that there's quite a few dates in Autumn with super cheap economy fares to Tokyo from New York.

Priority Pass is a lounge membership program that lets you enter a selected list of lounges around the world for a fee (their handy app lets you see which ones they partner with).
