Be aware if you join Asiana on a commuting contract. They lie to you regarding the ease of commuting. You only get 8 tickets per year, and you will commonly find flights overbooked, and unable you get home on the date you wish. Nearly every booking home you will be on the "waiting list". The whole process is far to long and painful for every flight home. You have to ring to book, then submit paperwork to get approval. Then when you get approval, you will take your reservation to ticketing, and then pay tax (it's not a "free" ticket) usually just over $100 depending on destination.

Until Asiana solve their ticketing problem, and offer commuters tickets home every month, they will always lose quality people to KA next door.KA pilots have no such issues (from what am aware) regarding geting their pilots home to their families.

The company itself is ok, but just painful getting home!
