Just as the title says...

I am wondering if anyone has just hung out at Incheon and just asked
for any available tickets to your destination.

I want to go to Hong Kong and I thought that maybe I could do this.


Do you think I would get a good price or get jacked ?

Question #2

Does 500, 000 for a RT from Incheon to Hkg on a few days notice seem
reasonable ?

I am really curious about just hanging out at Incheon...

Last minute, summer vacation....nasty cocktail. Pays to be prepared in these types of situations. I'm going to HK on Wednesday and paid W640K for TWO round-trip tickets...

But now I feel bad gloating...so I found you a better price.

Depending on your dates, you can get tickets between 380 and 450 a pop... Hurry now...

no more standby....I thought that might be the case.

Otherside, you are a bastard Smile, good catch on your tickets.

the link was great, however I just checked and the day just filled
up, if i were a few hours earlier perhaps. I'm kicking myself now...

Thanks for the heads up though..

you can do it, but you have to go the airline booths a good few hours before the flight and check with them. Other than that you are chancing it. Just check around online.
