Random question...since we have alien cards and visas, can we use the "Korean only" line at ICN? I would think no, but wasn't sure. It'd be a fun perk, though, since we're registered with their systems.

You'd think so, but unfortunately only f-visa holders (2,4,5) can use the Korean lines. E1/2's still have to use the non-Korean lines. Love the looks and comments I get when I'm in the K-lines...Wink

yes it's one of the perks that most flyers don't realize. you also don't need to fill out one of the yellow immigration cards they give you on the airplane upon coming into icn. the stewardesses are always so confused when i give it back to them. lol

E2 visa holders don't have to fill out the landing cards, either...the ARC is sufficient, along with a customs declaration form.

this.

plus you mean immigration line. There is no segregation at Customs.

Immi lines are rarely super long. ICN deserves its global top 3 ranking on efficiency alone. You also get your luggage back much more quickly at ICN than other airports.

Wouldn't it be awesome if F-series visa holders could use the automatic immigration booths?
