Etsi halvat lennot: Asiana Airlines

Plussat: The crew was very kind and helpful. They always had a smile. The food was delicious too.

Miinukset: Kindly Asiana airline

Asiana a380 HK to Seoul

Plussat: I was able to get last minute exit window seats, which gave me unlimited leg room. I did not mind pledging to help with emergency exits. With boarding, they did away with the boarding groups, so whoever lined up earlier got to go on the plane, of course after the first class and business. This all worked fine.

Miinukset: The cutlery for the meals were real metal, which felt nicer than plastic.

Asiana a380 Seoul to NY

Plussat: The Korean dinners were fine. Good last minute exit window seat

Miinukset: There should have been more snacks during the flight for the passengers to nosh. Cathay Pacific would have trays of goodies for people to take and the attendants would bring cup noodles and water upon request. The mid flight pizza sliver was a joke. The movie choices were limited.

Nap Place

Plussat: Between the legs of my Asiana flights, I had a 9-hour overlay at INC. Upstair in the same area with the pricey and exclusive lounges for elite travelers, there was a "Nap Space" or "Nap Place: a large suite of rooms with maybe sixty comfortable couches to catch up on missing sleep... with no sign-up required and no supervisory staff. And totally free of charge! Every airport should consider having such a welcomed service. Also at INC, bona-fide transit passengers with a outbound boarding pass can take a free shower (soap and towels provided as well?). Wow. These amenities surely make INC one of the least loathsome airports in Asia at which a day-long layover may be spent.

Miinukset: No downside!
