InY, hopefully you made it out ok. We finally made it out to our final destination on the morning of July 25.
I visited all three. The Pier was definitely the least packed. People were using entire couches as beds. People in the Cabin were sitting on the window sill for lack of seats. Ventured outside to visit gates of competing airlines going to the same place; Korean Air and Asiana said they were full or would refuse to sell Cathay a ticket becuase the flight "closed". To keep my seat in the Wing, I made a deal with some guy. He gave be a blanket when I returned as "rent."
Made it to Seoul on the 7 am 25th flight 412 (my rebooking from 416). Bag arrived today. First time I slept through a safety briefing. Had a view of the A330 video tape deck. Very retro with VHS tapes and a floppy drive.
