Unless you get exceptionally lucky there will be NO CHEAP deals to the beaches left.
You are almost at the point of "grab what you can at any price before there are NO SEATS left".
Oh, or you could always get a full fare business class seat. They almost never sell out. |

I'm sorry but there are plenty of last minute seats as Koreans overbook then cancel at the last minute without ever having paid!
I just today, December 6th, reserved tickets to Phuket from Busan, departing on Wednesday December 19th and returning January 1st.
490,000 won plus taxes is still under 620,000 won.
Depends on your definition of cheap but that ain't bad. |

Kangsan seems to be good, but taking around 2 days to respond to each email or reply. Calling is difficult as they will ask you your number and then say they will call you back, but you don't get a call. Of course, Friday has to be a busy day when half the staff is out of the office for a sick day like it was today. I will just have to wait until Sunday or Monday to get my flight confirmation and itinerary which is fine since I am not leaving anytime real soon.
I got a flight to BKK in a month from now and then to LA in the first week of February on Thai Airways for 1 million and 90 thousand won which I thought was pretty good considering a direct flight to LA would cost like 980,000 Won.
Despite Kangsan not being the fastest to work with, they seem to be good to use if you give them some time and are not a last minute basket case trying to escape Korea. I bet if you need immediate service, you can just go to their office and pay cash for a ticket. |
