    Korean Air vs Emirates

    Many thanks to all for your advice, as always. Very helpful. I believe my dad is now looking into this option (but extending the Korea stay a day or 2) for when he comes and visits next. Thanks for clarification re flight path as well - I think a TA gave them some wrong advice
