Thanks for answers guys
Fred, for your flight on Korean Air. If you are flying from the US to Korea, all i can say is "good luck." All flights are almost all the time oversold. Gate agents are pretty cool tho. They will do their best to get you on (especially if you are alone). I wanna recommend the same thing that i did to you (to buy Delta ticket DTW-ICN) just in case. If you are flying from AMS, let me know and I can check on it.
I guess I will just go to the front and introduce myself to the crew. Can't really hurt.
