Before taking my Korean Air 747 flight from Seoul Gimpo to Jeju back in October, I had a chance to visit the Asiana Lounge inside Gimpo’s domestic terminal.

Before my Turkish Airlines flight from San Francisco to Istanbul, I had a chance to visit two lounges thanks to my Star Alliance Gold status. First, I visited EVA Air’s Evergreen Lounge.
