Delta Air Lines is a member of the Sky Team Alliance which allows for award bookings on various partner airlines. While Delta’s SkyMiles award pricing varies for flights operated by Delta, partner redemptions have a set value. As of early 2019, a one-way award ticket on a partner will cost 35,000 SkyMiles in economy and…
Apparently a Korean Air A330 collided with another aircraft on the ground at Yangon International Airport, but didn’t realize it and took off right after, until the control tower notified the plane of what had happened. Per Business Insider: “On Friday, a Korean Airlines jet collided with another aircraft on the ground at Yangon International Airport. But…
Korean Air has some great award redemptions in their award chart. So when opportunities come up to earn bonus Korean Air SKYPASS miles, I give it a little attention, especially after experiencing their 777 Business Class. With the latest offer, they’ve increased the bonus on the Korean Air SKYPASS Visa Signature Card to 30,000 bonus…
Korean Air recently announced they’ll start a new non-stop service to the United States with the addition of service to Houston. This flight will be operated by one of their Boeing 777 planes equipped with First, Business and Coach class service. This means there is a new route to Asia on an award with…
Korean Air and the Hyatt Regency Incheon have teamed up to offer international First and Business Class passengers access to the saunas at the Hyatt Regency Incheon hotel. This is welcome news, especially since the access is provided free of charge to qualifying passengers in First or Business Class arriving on international flights other than…
I really enjoyed my first flight in Korean Air Business Class last year and my second flight in Korean Air’s 777 smaller Business Class cabin was great as well. I’m a loyal Delta flyer and I flew with Korean since their ticket price was right. I actually must go with the cheapest within a few…
I entered the Korean Air 777 and turned right to towards my seat 8 J in the smaller and more intimate Prestige Class cabin. I picked the smaller cabin for the 13+ hour flight back to the states because I wanted to try something other than the larger cabin I had during my outbound flight…
I consider Korean Air a jewel of the SkyTeam alliance. Not only does Korean Air have a good Business Class product (reviewed here), but they also have a First Class product that you can book by transferring Chase Ultimate Reward points to the Korean SkyPass program. The airline has recently announced plans to add a…
The Fullerton Bay hotel in Singapore sits on Singapore’s Marina Bay waterfront. With the city skyline behind it and the bay in front of it, the views from the rooftop bar are surreal for any first time visitor to Singapore. The hotel was ranked as the third best new business hotel in Singapore in 2012…
I was amazed after my first flight in Singapore Air Business Class from Korea to Singapore. I prepared myself for the superior service in Singapore Business Class since I normally fly domestic within the U.S., but what I wasn’t prepared for was the superior Gangnam Style Korean dance move that has taken over the internet by storm. The kid…
Korean Air has a lot more going for it than I originally thought. I didn’t realize it, but they offer Business Class award tickets from the U.S. to Europe for only 80,000 SkyPass miles. Since they are a SkyTeam carrier, this means you can redeem U.S. to Europe awards on partner carriers such as Air…
I recently flew Korean Air in Business Class and was quite impressed. As a result of the flying experience, I wanted to learn more about their program. What I found was interesting. I shared how you can fly on Air France to French Polynesia in Business Class by using only 90,000 Korean Air SkyPass Miles.…
I had to visit the transfer desk in Seoul since I flew Korean and Singapore Air on the same ticket number. I had access to both the Korean and Asiana Business class lounges but only had time to visit one. I heard reports about how easy it is to transit through the Incheon airport so…
We arrived at the International Terminal departure hall and headed for the Korean Air check-in desk. There was an economy class line, a First Class line, and our Prestige Class line. The lines had no waiting times so we went straight to the desk to obtain our boarding pass. The night before we were able…
Alex shared our monster day of airline award bookings earlier this week. We couldn’t have done it without this crazy points and miles hobby of ours. But as you know, flights are only half of an award trip. So we spent the next few days plotting out our hotel stays and booked over 25 award…
Korean Air called me today to clarify the 90,000 mile SkyPass award to French Polynesia. On Monday I wrote in detail how to book the Korean Air SkyPass 90,000 Business Class award to French Polynesia by using the Chase Ultimate Reward sign up bonuses. The airline agent was not familiar with the pricing for this…
