Korean Air Business Class: Amazing Service with Mediocre Food! Seattle to Seoul | TRIP REPORT

Come fly with meeee in Korean Air's Business class product—Prestige Class. Korean Air is a solid airline with solid service and a 10/10 crew. The food on my flight was a big miss, but that shouldn't stop YOU from booking with them! Watch to find out why I think they're still worth it! A bit wild to have no wifi on a plane in 2024 though, no?

P.S. I recorded this voiceover before they introduced their new Prestige hard product, but good timing because this cabin was kinda beat up.

Thanks for watching 🫡

20:32 and 20:35 Why is there an ashtray in a plane? I feel like I've seen them on planes, too, but smoking is banned so I wonder why they have it at all.

I have a 12 hour layover in Seoul before I fly to Shenyang the next morning. Have you used the Hyatt Incheon access that Prestige passengers apparently have access to? Any recommendations for an old American while in the Incheon Airport?

Great review! By the way, KE just rolls out a new prestige class on their new 787X.

I think getting the cultural food instead would’ve been better instead of western dishes. The food quality might’ve been much better

I'm taking this flight on Thursday. Thank you for all the information! I'm surprised at no wi-fi though. Looks like I'll be downloading a bunch of stuff.

The meals look blah 😕
Usually if seafood is paired with white rice, the seafood is cooked in a rich creamy sauce to make the rice more appetizing.
Here both seafood meals cooked dry without any sauce paired w rice show how little thought Korean Air put into the catering.
Now I know why most passengers order the Korean meals instead.
TBH, I've not seen many meals on Korean Air that look appetizing besides their local Korean dishes

SeaTac is the worst airport through and through!!
The whole function of the airport from pulling up to terminal, parking, design, design efficiency, aesthetics, amenities, EVERYTHING IS PRETTY BAD, and now I even understand why the food on all the flights out of Seattle is so bad. It’s the quality… Seattle doesn’t run on quality nor efficiency…

I just watched another video from over 1yr ago and the menu hasn't even changed, even the same meals. Including the infamous bibimbap.
Seems like most vloggers on Korean Air's Prestige class end up next to an engine. But sadly looking over the span of 3 years of videos, they don't seem to clean the areas well, especially the tray compartment. And the paint is coming off especially around your cubicle.
I expected better. I guess Korean Air is the pretend to be more than it is. Even economy class is labelled as "first class" lol
