This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I flew a lot, including to Seoul a lot. by BeijingIrish

Inchon was my connecting point for flights to Ulaan Bataar in the years when I was working in Mongolia (2009-2011).

I never medicated before long flights. I just don't like the feeling even though I don't know what the feeling is. Instead, I avoided eating solid food (I would drink soup if that were served); and, above all, I eschewed alcohol. Drink water like crazy.

I don't know if Seoul is your destination or if you are connecting to another flight. If it is your connection airport, you are in luck because it is the best airport in the world. Better than Changi, better than Kai Tak. Do two things: (1) take a nice hot shower and get a massage; and, (2) have a steaming bowl of peppery beef-bone soup. You don't need to leave the transit area. If you have time, rent a hotel room for 4 hours and take a nap. All these services are offered in the transit area.
