Just booked a mileage ticket from United which includes HKG-ICN on May 18 on the A359.
So the schedules people posting are not 100% accurate I guess. Or OZ is deciding to sub in A359s on short turns when possible.
I found this thread hoping to find a seat map so I had an idea where to sit. I had no idea the planes would only have been flying for 3 days by the time I ride in one. Will be my first A350 ride after TG swapped two of them on my last trip for crappy 777s.

I believe it's a slot issue out of SIN since there's a considerable european and asian domestic rush between 2300 and 0200. It would be perfect if they had KE's 0110 slot. It would make for a 2 hour layover to continue onwards to JFK and 3 hours to LAX. Do they have a codeshare with SQ on the route? SQ also departs SIN at 0010 giving for a more interesting connecting time in ICN.

Also even with the 0230 departure and 1030 arrival it's still a 4 hour connection to LAX (and 6 hours to SFO)...

Interestingly OZ754 (currently the 3x weekly 0230 departure) used to depart at 0130 last year and before that — flew it once and the rest of the airport was deserted at that time, so don't think it's a slot issue — so it's interesting that they've shifted the flight an hour later.
For example, the awful six hour connection BKK-ICN-SFO is a result of OZ having the aircraft that operates their single daily flight ICN-BKK do an immediate turn at BKK.
