Funny, I was just thinking the same thing.

Have either of you stayed there yet?

You're not a fan of the 355a arrival in to ICN? :rolleyes:

I have been searching for availability on other flights, but for now, we're on the 1250a JFK-ICN flight.

The plus side to the 355 arrival would be the traffic going into Seoul.

IMO it is the best W in the area, the problem is that it is not in Manhattan so for convenience it would have to lose some points. You can take the PATH train that runs 24/7 from Hoboken to NYC but sometimes it would be more convenient to stay in Manhattan.

ETA: Blissworld stayed there recently and has some great pics from his suite

As soon as CO gives me either service to CLE or a mainline flight to anywhere, I will be more than happy to let all my future *A flights be operated by (and credited to) CO. This is much more than I can say about US or F9, who offer mainline service but are US and F9 ... Right now, only having the options of BNA-EWR or BNA-IAH on the E145s clouds my decision-making.

99% of the time, I would say yes but wouldn't let the person take my phone to another cabin of service. The other 1% of the time, things aren't going well with my day and I'm busy evicting someone from my F seat with a single word.


Yes, I was. No longer. icurhere2, I'm guessing the MOVE was quite moving ;)

A complete :rolleyes: work day and then BL JR decides it would be a good day to do battle.

oh I understand you have your reasons, and don't begrudge that, it is the same reason I don't fly delta being that 800+ miles on a CRJ200 is not bearable.

I'm just hoping that the W Seoul does not :rolleyes: at me when we show up at 6:30a to check in.

Good to know! I'm not necessarily set on being in Manhattan for this stay, so convenience would not be an issue. Do you have any pictures of the rooms?

Both paint a very different picture than the pitot and static systems giving incorrect readings.

I am tired now. This was a bad idea. :rolleyes:

I thought I uploaded my pics from the room , but I guess I have not.
I edited my other post here is the link from blissworld's stay.

Frankly, I'm thinking of just switching to DCA-DTW-NRT-ICN once availability opens on NW for NRT-ICN (DTW/MSP-NRT arrive too late to connect to KE on the same day). I really want the 772LR on DL from ATL, though. Have you tried for ATL-ICN on DL?

Our outbound is on a Sunday so DL does not operate ATL-ICN but I have been watching for ICN-ATL on the Wednesday we are returning.

I've considered the NRT shuffle on the outbound, but we are already going through NRT (right now, to SFO) on the return so I'd like to avoid having to do that twice. Our routing right now works, but there is still plenty of room for improvement.

Having to find 2 seats is my biggest issue...

I use a louder version of "MOVE" on the racquetball court; that application came into existence after a concussion suffered by another VP (he lost situational awareness and got run over).
