I'm off on my first of 3 FREE Business Elite trip around the world, courtesy of Delta and its SkyTeam partners. Thanks!!!
Thought it would be cool to get feedback and ideas about my destinations from the incredible brain trust here, as I am completely winging this trip without much fore planning at all.
Flew Korean Airlines to Seoul. I was upstairs on an A380, sitting just aft of the lounge in the nose. Cool!
Currently in Seoul, South Korea on a 23 hour layover. Heading to Auckland, New Zealand later today. Not much to get excited about Seoul: lacks the personality of other Asian cities, and the air quality is abysmal. I visited the big tower on the mountain in the center of the city today. Did the shopping and street food thing last night in Myeondong. Overall, a clean, new city with big bucks everywhere. Everyone on the streets is in their 20's. Wonder where all the older people hang out? Inside watching TV?
The plan in NZ is to rent a car for 4 days on the north island, then fly to Christchurch and rent a car for 5 days on the south island. Really looking forward to NZ. I've heard its incredible!
