Is good. Set expectations to regional C class though. Absolutely a good ride, plus all your lounge access points, but it is quite different than say C class SFO-ICN. Good value nonetheless!

thanks for the great feedback you all! :-) xoxo

some people say that business on the A321 is not worth it, but it's free for me in a sense (award ticket) and for a little over 5 hours, I will be comfortable enough I presume.

in addition, I would hope to believe that Asiana does a decent meal/wine service on a flight of 5+ hours? lol

Mahalo,

I think you should stick with your original ticket.
Your value of miles comes from riding HNL-ICN flight in C class.
I would not want to sit in Y on such a flight to save some miles.

The only issue I see with it is this "Meal: None". I hope that is not accurate information as I can imagine one can be quite hungry during a 9 hour flight. Peanuts and a drink can only take you so far.

I am absolutely certain that OZ will have a full meal/alcohol service for 9hrs in business class from HNL to ICN.

If I am wrong, I will eat dirt...lol :-)

United does that for most of the partner awards... It just means that United's system can't "see" a meal list. The OP will be fed.
