Good Travel Agent in NYC?

Can anyone recommend a good travel agent in NYC who specializes in KAL bookings? I am hoping to get a decent discounted business class fare on a multi-stop itinerary to Asia.

Thank you!

You can use my TA in Los Angeles. the company has offices in NY as well and they have good fares on both KE and OZ all over Korea.. The best in the LA area... Her name is Eunice at Four Seasons Travel in Los Angeles. 562-921-7775. Tell her Danny sent you. =) She will hook you up.

Buying KE Tix from Korea Town TA vs KE's Website

I'm in Los Angeles enough to contact most any Korean travel agency for this trip:

RT on KE from TPE to LAX in C

KE's website prices this out at $2,445, which is a whole lot cheaper than it would be I had originated at LAX. (I live in Southern California, but plan on using the two halves of the RT ticket for two separate trips several months apart.)

Is there any point in bothering a TA at a Korean agency to write this kind of ticket? Transpacific travel has to be on KE because I'm a Skyteam slave, and I have to buy another ticket on CX or EVA or whoever to get from TPE whever I ultimately want to go.

I have in the past bought "consolidator" type tix for o/w trans-Pacific tix on Air China to PEK saving $100 or so.

P.S. The 00:30 departure from LAX arrives at ICN at 05:15 the following day. Is KE's biz lounge at ICN open that early?

Dragging up an old thread... anyone have experience booking Business (Prestige) Class tix with Four Seasons travel agency in LA?

Would anyone recommend another agency for KE C tix USA-BKK ?

I used Angel Travel near Chicago for NW tix, but I don't think they have a contracy for KE.

Does anyone have recent experience with any of the TA's mentioned in this thread for booking Business Class seats USA-Asia? For my next revenue ticket USA-BKK, I'd really much rather fly KE than DL/NW. If I can find a TA with KE fares comparable to NW, that'll do the trick.

Any recommendations for other TA's?

Topping.
I'm also interested if anyone has recent information on a good TA that can help book revenue seats on Korean to BKK/DPS. Thanks.
