You need the Platinum card for this, correct?

No issues for me, aside from an oddly full seat map in First. Probably from a lot of people booking this, I'd guess.

Pretty sure there isn't. There might be one that have to route through JFK

I was looking for February but the TATL KE A330 does not have a first class, so it did not let me pick seats on those segments...

TATL KE is a 77W, not an A330. You can pick seats after making the booking.

Also booked one for $2350. Will be canceling it but I wanted to see if it actually booked into F.

It does have a connection in TPE though

Just booked this! Went through LAX on the way back… and might just skip the LAX-JFK leg depending on how I’m feeling.

how do we know it’s refundable. Booked through IAP.

One of my primary concerns with booking via AMEX is that if there are an IRROPs or schedule changes, going through them might be a hassle. Thoughts?

I got this from PIT with nice layover times with the ICN-DPS leg in J for ~2700 in January. I could pick the seats, but I had to do it one flight at a time and then save for it to work. Excited to see this from my smallish home airport!

That is too little money and not a genuine first class ticket. Read what happened last time somebody flew KE from JFK to DPS

Yes, I meant the 77W, it did not let me pick those on the DL site.

I am on the fence on this fare, even though it is great and found it for my dates in Feb....Will probably regret not booking it later...

That's exactly what I'm doing. Availability seems to be thinning
