|
|
I'm going just for a quick visit.
Should I rent a phone at LAX in America, or rent one at Incheon airport? I thought with the exchange rate in Korea, it would be better at Incheon, but I'm told LAX has cheaper per minute rates.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks. |

I always rent one at Incheon. It is much less of a hassle (even with the difference in currency) and you always have an easy contact/support
number in Korea if you have problems.
I've had friends rent ones in the US and they always had problems while here in Korea. |

| The cellphones from the US wont work here. You`ll have to rent from Incheon if you`re in dire need of a phone. |

you can get one for free here and just pay for the calls.
check w/korea tourism about it.
they'll just need a copy of your passport |
