Back again guys. Sorry for the delay - KE flight was 1hr late into HNL - air traffic - apparently - but the flight was fantastic. We had a bit of trouble at ICN - went to KA desk to check in at 6.00am on arrival, only to be told there was a problem with the reservation and to return to the desk at 7.30 am when someone would be able to help us. KA were great - gave us access to the business club while we waited. So we made sure to use all of the facilities - shower, drinks etc before we had to go back to the desk - just in case! As it turned out, the KA agent was fantastic - not sure what she had to do but it involved one hellava lot of key strokes on the keyboard and we finally had boarding passes, not only to HNL but onward to OGG and SEA. Woohoo! As we only have carry on - (20 flights in 2 weeks just begs for a bag to go astray) we are set. Currently sitting in HA premier club at HNL awaiting flight to OGG. For those of you repositioning to ICN (although it sounds as though we may have got away with it due to the early flight), if you're transiting, the KA desk is on level 4 above Gate 25 (right near the Business and First Club). I am doing a blog for this trip - you can see it at
