The First Class Travel Blog

Back to Incheon and home

With breakfast included in my rate, I headed down to The Market at around 6:30am.

Very cool glass floor with some type of historical dig underneath.

Impressive food options with mutliple stations.

Delicious!

After breakfast, up to the room to gather my belongings, then back down to check out and a 7 minute $4 taxi ride from to Seoul Station.

And just followed the Airport Railroad signs. 

Bought my ticket and boarded the 7:35am Express train.

43 minutes later the train pulled into Incheon station.

The Express Train Lounge, your for the day at around $8.   LOL.

Following the signs and crowd to the terminal and check-in.

Not sure this is the best choice of words.  LOL.

Easy check-in with the contract staff manning the JAL counter.   

With instructions for getting to the gate.

Pleasant agent claimed there was no Priority security but with plenty of time to kill, I just headed for the closest security entrance and joined the masses.  

Despite the throng, the line moved resaonably quickly and I was in the concourse about 20 minutes later. 

The down the escalator for another train ride to the midfield concourse for Gates 101-132.

JAL contracts with Korean for their lounge, but I had read that the Cathay Pacific lounge was better.  So I headed there first where my One World Emerald status got me in. 

The Cathay lounge is pretty basic.  Even your average US lounge is better than this.   OK, that Korean lounge must really be bad if this one is better.

Not much in the way of good options here.  Glad I ate at the hotel.

At around T-60, I decided to walk over to and check out the Korean Lounge.

Yikes.  This one is pretty ugly. 

The food options did seem a little better though.

Hidden away at one end of this lounge with this room, perhaps the VIP Room.  LOL.
