heading for Ren Seoul (in the Gangnam region of the city) next week (stayed at the JW last time)

upon arriving into ICN you can take the KAL limo bus #6703 (from either gate 4B or 11A) directly to the hotel............. if you're flying KAL you can buy tickets on the flight at -12% regular price......

sorry, no idea on getting from ICN to CY, but their website says:
Alternate transportation: For hotel limousine service, please contact the hotel; fee: 115000 KRW (one way) ;reservation required
Bus service, fee: 9,000.00 KRW (one way)
Subway service, fee: 4,500.00 KRW (one way)
Estimated taxi fare: 60,000.00 KRW (one way)

silver status will generally only get you bonus points on paid stays, but on awards, well, guess it's up to the hotel to be generous if they want to but Korean properties that I've stayed at usually do no more then they are required to do.........
