KE to send A380's to SYD

[soorox]

KE has inputed the A380 into their daily SYD schedule starting from 01DEC, also the 77W takes over from 25OCT. Further changes are expected as SYD is very seasonal, which could see SYD downgraded after the traditional busy months. I would imagine, KE might also announce further enhancements/changes to their Australian operations too? Would love to see MEL back, just saying

Another A380 choice for anyone who are fans of that plane type - I definitely am Looking forward to seeing the KE A380 fly overhead.

Is KE F only available to their own frequent flyer members?

No idea but they're skyteam members

Is KE F only available to their own frequent flyer members?

AFAIK yes. SkyTeam only allows F awards on the same airline as the points are held (except for MU & CZ).

And redemptions on Korean air are amazing value. First class is wide open for awards most of the time (y)
