Thanks to the Talkboard, Flyertalk and Randy for the positive (and swift) response to a FT community request. This is an example of why FT is not only the preeminent travel oriented forum on the Internet, but simply THE best community based forum in existence today.

Glad we could help :)

Yes, thank you indeed. This was quick.

A big thank you from me, too!

One of my sons is on a layover in Korea today, and then on his way to PEK for 2 1/2 weeks. I've already emailed him some summaries of the great info/links that has been posted here, and I look forward to reading and finding out more! :)
