About This Route

9 business award seats seen here in the last 7 days (last verified 1hr ago). Korean Air flies nonstop from the US to Seoul, but little of its premium award space is visible to partners because its US flights are sold mainly through Delta. What does produce, consistently, is one-stop routings: Qatar Airways through Doha on the A350-1000, Air France through Paris, and Cathay Pacific through Hong Kong from the West Coast. United's Newark–Seoul nonstop opens up occasionally. Expect long journeys (via Doha is around 30 hours from New York), but these are real, bookable business seats.

💡 Insider Tip

Check the whole routing, not just the seat count: some itineraries pass through two hubs, and the Doha connection can be eight hours or more.
