Air Asia
    Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur
(sidenote, Air Asia is the largest discount airline in SE Asia, with Kuala Lumpur as their hub - so this can be a good gateway)

    Japan: Fukuoka, Osaka


Cebu Pacific:
    Philippines: Cebu, Manila


Jeju Air:
    Japan: Kitakyūshū, Nagoya, Osaka
    Thailand: Bangkok


Jin Air:

    Philippines: Kalibo


Other destinations and/or airlines?

keep an eye on Eastarjet, I know they're planning on starting up to China soon (Shanghai and somewhere else) but as of yet they haven't got those flights off the ground (pun intended).

OK, if anyone notices when/if EasterJet gets their planned int. destinations running, that would be great...


On Air Busan's website, I actually see Fukuoka and Osaka as drop-down options. I'm not that great with Korean - does the website say Kita Kyushu will be added?

my mistake, was meant to write Osaka (was browsing Jeju Air's site at the same time) Very Happy

I see no option on Zestair's site to fly from Korea to anywhere.

I know they do some charter flights.

I noticed that as well. I'm unsure. That used to be a drop-down option I believe. Also, Incheon-Kalibo is still included on their 'International Routes' page: http://www.zestair.com.ph/international_route.html
And also on the flight schedule PDF...

Perhaps if anyone has emailed or talked to them they can shed some light.

Any cheap flights to HK? I'm itching for dim sum, BBQ pork, and good food in general.

Cathay Pacific, Korea Air, Thai Airways, and Asiana all fly there directly. You might try their websites, or one of the Korean-language general-search sites, if you can navigate them:

I'm unsure which other airlines (with a layover) would go there/be inexpensive.

Update:

If you go to Zestair.co.kr there are flights to Philippines from Busan or Incheon. But I don't see an option for a one-way. My wife will call the office on Monday.
