"Aeroplane"

Today I booked my ticket to Seoul, (ICN) for all you airport savvy people out there. It's actually in Inchon, a large city immediately west of Seoul, but still is listed as Seoul. I suppose this makes sense as Providence airport (PVD) isn't actually in Providence but in Warwick.

I was lucky enough that my recruiter and co-teacher agreed that I should NOT arrive in Seoul on June 1st (which my contract states). I was told that the contract date could simply be changed - something you don't really expect in the States as we're sticklers when it comes to written contract.

Thanks to some sleuthing and a little bit of advice from my good friend Nick E (aka Nick #1) I found out what to expect on my Korean Air flight. I'll be aboard a Boeing 747-400, and thanks to SeatGuru.com found out what seat would be best to book.

For those who care to know, I'll be departing on June 2nd from (JFK), expecting to arrive on June 3rd (Seoul time) around 5:30pm. Don't worry, I won't call you all at 4am EST to let you know I've arrived!

SeatGuru is a Godsend, I use it before making any flight reservations. I used it to scope out decent seats for my flights to/from India.

Thanks for the little shout out!
