Where can cheap tickets be found from Korea to the US? What airlines or websites are good? I've been browsing the ticket prices and they are looking pretty steep.

My sister paid a little over $1200 for flights going from Richmond VA -> STL (2 day stopover for a wedding) -> Incheon (layover in Tokyo) and then Incheon -> Dulles.

I'll have to ask her where she booked it...

Check expedia.com I just got a ticket to return for 680.00 and I don't even have to endure a crappy United experience again.

Yes the quality and amount of subservient vagina on an airplane is the true benchmark of a civilization's viability.

NWA. The same shitty flight every year. It is cheap or at least the cheapest
i have ever found. The best part is comparing and contrasting the two
separate flights. Seoul to Tokyo vs. Tokyo to the States. On the former: top
of the line aircraft. Video on demand in the headrest in front of you.
Beautiful, kind flight attendants. On the latter: A plane that should have
been scraped years ago. A shitty projector in the center fuselage. Flaming
male attendants, and insolent, spent stewardesses in sloppy uniforms. It
always speaks to the decline of the West to me.


You're right, NWA does seem to have cheap flights.

Also NWA had a great CD called "Straight Outta Compton".

best advice for this: get a korean koworker to find you tickets... flights originating from korea are always cheaper via korean websites versus english language websites... i don't know how they do it, but each time any of the foreigners i know have found the cheapest flight that they could and then asked my head korean teacher to find a similar flight, the foreigner has saved bundles...

for example, i bought a ticket a month ago for korea to cambodia and back... my korean head teacher surfed the korean travel webpages and found a ticket that saved me 400,000won... that's after i searched every possible english website for a week... it took him 10 minutes...

koreans can find cheap flights as long as they originate outta korea... get some one to help you... and when they're done, buy 'em a fancy coffee from starbucks to say thanx and all is good...
