Korean Air Trip Report flying from Singapore to Vienna (via Seoul-Incheon Airport), onboard a Korean Air Boeing 777, on a beautiful day all across Asia and Europe.
My first time flying with Korean Air and it was such a huge trip: almost 23 hours since boarding in Singapore until disembarking in Vienna. In between, the amazing Terminal 4 of Singapore-Changi airport, a 6-hour flight from Singapore to Seoul, my first time at Seoul-Incheon airport, and a 13-hour flight from Seoul to Vienna.
Our journey started at midnight in Singapore. After a fascinating tour of Singapore-Changi Terminal 4, we boarded and departed on time for the first Boeing 777 of the journey. The first half of the flight was during the night, but from then we enjoyed a great sunrise over the MAR DE LA CHINA MERIDIONAL. The approach and landing in Seoul were really beautiful.
The layover at Seoul-Incheon airport lasted around 4 hours. We didn't get out of Terminal 2 so we had plenty of time to explore it from side to side. The planespotting, although mainly about Korean Air, was amazing, including B747, A380, B777, A330, B787... really worth the time of walking all the terminal.
We took off on time from Seoul and set course towards China. We flew over Tianjin, south of Beijing, and Taiyuan. From there we made a right turn and set course towards northwestern China. We entered Kazakhstan and crossed it completely from east to west, until reaching the Caspian Sea. Flew over Azerbaijan, Turkiye, the Black Sea, Bulgaria, Romania, and Hungary, and, finally, we landed in Vienna on time,
About the onboard service: on the 1st flight they served a warm breakfast. There were 2 options: omelet or fish. What a surprise, the majority wanted omelet. When they arrived to me they didn't have more omelet. Since I hate fish, they offered me the most disgusting hot dog I've ever seen. Judge by yourselves.
On the 2nd flight, things were much better: just after takeoff the lunch was served with Asian and European options. I went for the beef and I must say it was really good. Also the dessert and the salad were pretty tasty. A great lunch, to be fair. Around 7 hours into the flight they offered a chicken with vegetabkes sandwich which was delicious. Probably the best sandwich on a plane so far for me.
Around 2 hours before landing the dinner was offered. In this case, the options were fish or a typical Korean-style beef with rice cake. None sounded good to me but I chose the second one. Well, it was just not for me. The worst food I ever had on a plane... but because of myself. The food was looking good... but I didn't like it. At all.
Now it's your turn!
Have you ever flown with Korean Air? Which route? How was the experience? Have you ever flown on the Boeing 777? What do you think about the Korean Air service? Have you ever been in Seoul? Maybe in Singapore?
Lots of things to talk about! See you all in the comments!
