I received an email from Korean Air that only Korean passport holders allowed for Wed Flight and to change it. When Chase contacted Korean Air, the rep said they are aware of this notice but it doesnt affect my flight. If it didnt affect my flight, not sure why I received an email from them. I just dont want to head to the airport to be told I cannot board the fllight.
Anyone knowledgeable on this issue can shed some light?

- Honolulu-Incheon : [KE054] All flights except for Fri and Sun (to 31MAR)
- Guam-Incheon : [KE114] As of 19th January 2022 - Sun (to 31MAR)
- Ulaanbaatar-Incheon : [KE868] As of December 2021 - Sat (to 31MAR)
I would change. I found that travel agencies or call centers are not reliable - the best resource is to ask KE at HNL airport. According to one note to the travel agencies, KE said the detail will be finalized only at the last minute as copied below. Basically Friday and Sunday flights are the only the guaranteed flights unless you have A-1/2 F-5/6 visa or transit at ICN.
Not the best way to look up but once a flight becomes 'regular', you'll see them on the 'scheduled arrival flights' tab. At the moment, only Mon and Sat arrivals (Sun/Fri departures) are listed for April.
