A quick check of KE's website revealed that they do indeed fly to BNE (probably for Koreans who want to vacation on the Gold Coast).

As far as SkyTeam is concerned, this is your only real option to BNE, and as far as CO is concerned the only way you'll get EQMs all the way through. Take it or leave it.

KE 813 indeed runs 3 times a week between ICN and BNE on an A330. This flight has excellent connecting times (up to 3 hours) with KE service from JFK, ORD and ATL. You should get full EQMs for these flights.

I wouldnt go near KE with a 100 foot pole. If I wanted to go I'd fly into CNS and take a connection from there on Qantas...

Ain't that the truth!
...Next on my sh!t list is Korean Air. Not satisfied with painting their planes the most hideous shade of light blue available and then crashing them with monotonous regularity, they went and called their premium cabin "Morning Calm Class". That truly takes the cake for stupid names. What on God's light blue earth is "Morning Calm" anyway? It sounds like something I associate with taking a dump right after waking up.

Are you sure about that? This is a paste from CO's site:


Earn OnePass miles with standard fares on Emirates, with the following general exceptions: all free travel, industry-free or industry-reduced rate tickets, charter flights and promotional certificates.

To receive mileage credit, present your OnePass number when you make reservations or check in for your flight.

Travel Area for Mileage Accrual: All Emirates-operated flights

From the CO website- you have to read the small print on the bottom of the page:

* OnePass Elite qualification miles and points and Elite mileage bonuses may only be earned on Continental Airlines codeshare flights operated by Emirates connecting in London Gatwick (LGW) to/from Dubai.

You get full OnePass miles on all EK flights as written above but EQMs only one CO coded flights operated by EK.
