I'm moving to Bundang in a month. I bowl in leagues and tournaments here in the states. I'm told competitive bowling is more club oriented in Korea.

Does anyone have any info on competitive bowling in Korea? Maybe a center you went to once and noticed a tournament or league?

Thanks

Can you bring a ball on a plane? Here they have weight limits on carry-on items.

Good question. I assumed I could bring one or two in my checked luggage. Worse case scenario I buy some from a pro shop there.

What airlines don't allow bowling equipment to be checked? I don't know of any.

I never said anything about carrying it on. That said, many airlines do allow 1 and 2 ball carriers as carry on luggage.

I haven't flown internationally, so maybe there is something you guys know that I don't.

Balls are heavy. I don't know why everyone's saying you shouldn't carry it on, I really thing you SHOULD, otherwise you're going to have to pay through the nose for it to be checked. Continental charged me $200 per bag for being over.

Be sure to bring your own shoes.
