Booking my Vacation

Well money is sent to Canada and tomorrow I will make final plans for London. Right now I'm looking at flights.

China Southern has the best prices, around $1000 USD return from Incheon, but at almost 50 hours travel time, a transit visa in Guangdong would be a must and the Chinese can be difficult about that though I could get one it I got on it now. Not that a night in Canton would be terrible though...... Air China also has great deals from both Incheon and Busan, but the 12 hours plus layovers in Beijing make that less of an option (I'd point out that if China allowed easy transit visas like most countries I would stay overnight there, or even for 2-3 days, but they don't.... oh well).

After that it's Ethiad and Emirates are respectively via the UAE for around $1200. It's 20 hours there and 18 back so not too bad and probably my best option (both win airline of the year frequently and any flight over six hours requires consideration like that. There are also multi-airline flights via Hong Kong on Korean Air/British Airways. at $1270 not a bad option but a long layover there (though a two day stopover becomes a real option). Finally the European carriers are all around $1350 but it's one 11-14 hour flight to Amsterdam, Istanbul, Paris etc and a quick transfer.

Anyway, I'll make my final decisions this week.
