This was my first time on Korean Air. I found the service to be very attentive and gracious. The hard product was dated and I'm not sure there is much of a point to have a separate First Class. The seats seem the same. I suppose the F/A to pax ratio is better. It's also nice to be the first off the airplane. I didn't observe what type of meal was on offer in Business but it probably wasn't much different, if at all. I left the map on the IFE screen so can't comment on the quality of selections. In summary it was a quality experience on Korean Air. Thank you for reading.

Hmmmm...so what is the point of having a First Class with the same exact seats as Business class?
-I had to look it up on their website. The First Class Sleeper is 180 degree bed with ottoman while the Business Class Prestige Sleeper is also a 180 degree bed with the little footrest at the bottom rather than the ottoman. That's a lot of words to say that there is basically no difference!
I hope the price premium over Business class isn't too much, otherwise it'd be a huge rip off.
-I used 80k Skypass miles for first class HND-GMP; ICN-JFK. It would have also been 80k ICN-JFK so I added the little Tokyo bit to try a different product. To your point there is no way they can command a price premium for First over Business on that HND-GMP route with no difference in product.
Happy flying.
Thanks again and happy flying.
I'm scratching my head wondering how they call this first class when it looks just like business class seat.
Unless ... they serve Krug or Dom Perignon in first class?
Do they actually charge more money for first class?
I can confidently say the meal would be the same, because bimbimbap is just that.. bimbimbap lol doesn't matter if its served in business or first or economy.

-I did not observe this and no mention was made in the menu.

-Good question, I don't know. Couldn't be that much more, right?
