American doesn't either. I think the flight to ICN was on Japan Airlines (but there wouldn't be miles for that...your suggestion is way better ^).

So unless there's some brilliant FT'er who can think of something, I'd suggest doing the SEA-NRT leg on DL/NW (or SEA-LAX-NRT on a combo of AS and DL/NW) and then doing KE just for the RDM's NRT-ICN (no EQM's, but you will get RDM's at the very least).
I'd suggest looking in the Delta/Northwest forums and the American airlines forum to see if there's any real difference in what's offered on board for international flights.

love2snorkel - Whether it's a flight directly from SEA or one with a layover in LAX, you will get enough miles to make MVP with this round trip flight.
