Alternatively it sounds like you're connecting from KE646 (1am SIN departure) to KE91 — is there any space on the previous day's KE644 (10pm SIN departure) to switch to instead?
Correct, I am on the KE646. I would much rather be on the 10pm departure to allow for comfortable connection in ICN but it was not available. I did notice that the A380 is going back on the JFK route but it is much more convenient for us to fly into JFK than BOS. There are two of us so a 2-2-2 arrangement is not that bad, what matters most is lie-flat for sleeping. I was intending to contact Korean and request waitlisting on it anyway, irrespective of the schedule change. I'll post here how they respond to my request for a schedule change accommodation..
