Flight was still slam full. ICN-ATL/ATL-ICN route always is!
That flight is full of US soldiers. That's why it is always full. And rumor has it that it will get a 380 soon.

August is traditionally the time when most Koreans go on vacation. How is that for collective thinking!

Anyhow, it will be very difficult to get upgraded on this flight, unless you were a Million Miler Member.

If you are based in Korea, perhaps you might use a credit card that credits miles towards KE, then use the miles for upgrades later.

Do we see a pattern in op ups to biz? Any of these help:

Reserving Premium Economy, flying on certain days of week, being Skyteam elite (but not KE elite) ?

Was on the lax to icn a380 flt and every single y seat was filled.
Heard some people's name got called prior to boarding so I guess they got upgraded to. Iz class.
