Korean Air Sale bottom line
With Korean Air, you can get to all their Asian destinations with a one-stop in Seoul. This makes for an easier travel day and depending on your layover, you may even qualify for a free SEOUL CITY TOUR from Incheon Airport. More information about the free transit tour can be found here. Overall, I think this is a great sale. The only negative to this sale is the no advanced seat selections but if you don’t mind where you sit, this sale can’t be beat.
