AirAsia Flights between Philippines and Korea

AirAsia has been named the World’s Best Low-Cost Airline for the 10th year in a row.

Flights from Manila to South Korea with AirAsia

It was autumn when I went to South Korea for the six-day “I Love Korea” Fam Trip, a media tour sponsored by AirAsia and Korea Tourism Organization. The climate there was extremely cold compared to my hometown Manila which is hot and humid. Unlike our Summer Capital Baguio City, the autumn climate in South Korea was cold but dry, and that combination made me enjoy my cultural and gastronomical adventure even more! We explored Gyeonggi, Yongin, Gangwon, Wonju, Gangnueng, and Seoul.

Fall lasts from September to November in South Korea, and they weren’t joking when they said that that’s the perfect time to see the country. I truly enjoyed my trip to the autumn-seasoned South Korea, and I’m looking forward to seeing it again this winter. Korea is, after all, one of the nearest Winter destinations from Manila.

This February 9 to 25, 2018, the Winter Olympics will be held in PyeongChang, South Korea. It will be the first time in history that a Winter Olympics will be hosted by a mainland Asian country, and I am looking forward to visiting South Korea during then too, in the future!

South Korean Winter? AirAsia will take you there—fast

AirAsia flights from Manila to Seoul only take 3 hours and 30 minutes on average. The travel time is affected by factors like weather conditions, of course, but it generally doesn’t take any longer than that. AirAsia flights depart from Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 / NAIA T3, and arrive at Incheon International Airport (ICN) in Seoul.

The app also knows that we don’t need to fall in those long lines in the airport. With the AirAsia Mobile Application’s check-in feature, flying is made hassle-free, because we’re allowed to print out our own boarding pass. All we need is our booking number, and our 2D barcode at the kiosks in the airport (which we should scan). With those and the other check-in details, we can skip the lines and go straight for the departure gates.

What’s more, if we forget to list down our itinerary for our trip, the mobile application lets us access that list in-app, even without an internet connection. Travel guides are also accessible offline via the app.
