Is there a website like Orbitz where you can compare different airline prices and buy them online? Only other way I see to do this is to work through a travel agent, and they can be kind of pushy.

Try these two:

http://www.whypaymore.co.kr/


http://www.gonow.co.kr/

You'll need to be able to read Korean or get a Korean colleage to read it for you but you won't find better prices for flights originating from Korea on other websites such as Orbitz, etc.

orbitz is hilarious they will get me flights for Japan to Hawaii that originate in Japan, and guess what - they go from Tokyo to Seoul then Honolulu.

I don't know how much tax and stuff is involved, but the prices through expedia (which include all taxes and fees) for Incheon to Narita start at 557$ (Northwest Air) and then 561$ (Korean Air) - then Japan Air and All Nippon for 675$. I randomly chose the dates Sept. 1st to 3rd.

Those prices are all ripoffs. You should be able to buy an Incheon-Tokyo ticket for about 300,000 to 400,000 won depending on day of departure.

www.onlinetour.co.kr usually has cheap fares. I've used them before, but the site is in Korean.

Ana is offering fares for 318,000 won.
