Transit through ICN on separate tickets?
 

Hi all. I'm thinking about booking a
1. Delta MSP-ICN flight with points. lands 520PM at T2
2. a separate Korean Air flight from ICN-PQC departing 705PM from T2 (based on current flights)

i have no checked bags. is that enough time and possible to do? i.e. would i have to clear customs, exit, and re-enter? and i'm assuming there will be a transfer desk post-security for me to obtain my next ICN-PQC boarding pass.

(the reason for the split is because Delta doesn't offer the entire MSP-PQC flight with points, only to ICN.)

For the ke flight, u can prob checkin online and get a mobile boarding pass.

At t2 after landing, go through the transit section before immigration.

thank you, appreciate the response.

Correct, it's roughly near gates 230-231. I had troubles to get a KE boarding pass on their website, but you only have to scan your passport to enter the transfer area, nobody asked for a boarding pass.

Yes, I've recently done this, no issues and plenty of time.

I have done this sort of transit at ICN before–flew CDG-ICN on AF, with a separate onward ticket to NRT. KE has a transfer desk right before transit security where you can request the boarding pass for your next flight. Like you, I had no luggage checked in, although they did ask if I had checked in anything with AF.
