First time on Korean
 

I redeemed Chase points for a one way on Korean Air online (HKG-JFK with an overnight in ICN). I'm little nervous having never flown Korean Air before when I read the Credit Card Verification Form that I need to bring it to a Korean Air office.

I have searched and cannot find any info on the blogs or FT except that for flight check-in I need to have my credit card that I used to purchase the ticket with me. Can someone confirm that I need to bring this Verification Form and credit card with me on my trip and show at Check-In if asked? Do I need to do anything before I leave the US (flying CX to Asia)?

If bringing credit card at check-in is an issue, you need to visit the office anytime before the flight. But if you're planning to travel with that credit card, don't worry about it. Just show it at check-in and they will take care of the form and the process.

If you purchased through KE website without anyone's help (i.e. no phone call), then it's very likely that you don't need the verification process at all.

Wonder what will happen if you lose the credit card on the trip? They will either let it go or (in the worst case,) cancel the transaction and use your other credit card on site for paying the tax. It won't be a big issue and they won't kick you out. Just chill and enjoy your trip. :)

Thanks! Figured I was over reacting, but I'm out of vacation days and can't afford to get stuck in Asia :eek:

KE did ask for the credit card on a previous trip of mine.
