We reviewed the outbound SIN-ICN leg earlier, so we won't repeat the details on the aircraft, the headrest, or the IFE. This review covers what was different on the way home.

We've already covered the aircraft, the IFE, and the general cabin condition in our review of the ICN-NGO flight, so this review focuses on what was different about the return journey.

At just under two hours, the Incheon to Nagoya flight is short enough that there isn't a huge amount to cover. The seat was comfortable enough for the duration, the food was decent for a regional hop, and nothing went wrong. For a connecting flight after an overnight red-eye, that's really all you need. We transited through Incheon after our o... - [Review: Korean Air Prestige Lounge East (Left) (ICN)](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/25/review-korean-air-prestige-lounge-east-left-icn.md) ([web](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/25/review-korean-air-prestige-lounge-east-left-icn/)) (2026-04-25) We visited this lounge twice, in March and April 2026, on transit flights through Incheon. Like the Right lounge next door, we covered both breakfast and lunch across our visits. The Left lounge opened in January 2026 as the second phase of Korean Air's Terminal 2 lounge renovation, and it takes things a step further than the Right side with a few additions that make it worth seeking out if you have the choice. Location and access - [Review: Korean Air Prestige Lounge East (Right) (ICN)](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/22/review-korean-air-prestige-lounge-east-right-icn.md) ([web](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/22/review-korean-air-prestige-lounge-east-right-icn/)) (2026-04-22) We visited this lounge twice, in March and April 2026, on transit flights through Incheon. Both visits covered different meal periods (breakfast and lunch), which gave us a reasonable sense of the food rotation and how the lounge operates across the day. Korean Air completed a major renovation of its Prestige East (Right) Lounge in August 2025 as part of a broader overhaul of its Terminal 2 lounge network. - [Review: Asiana Airlines A350-900 Economy Class (SIN-ICN)](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/20/review-asiana-airlines-a350-900-economy-class-sin-icn.md) ([web](https://quietvacationer.com/2026/04/20/review-asiana-airlines-a350-900-economy-class-sin-icn/)) (2026-04-20) This was our first time flying Asiana Airlines. We were heading from Singapore to Nagoya via Incheon to catch the cherry blossoms again, and Asiana offered the best combination of price and timing for the Singapore to Seoul leg. At around S$550 per person during peak cherry blossom season, it felt like a reasonable deal for a full-service carrier. One thing to note: Asiana's fare only includes one piece of checked luggage at 23kg. For travellers packing for a longer trip (or planning to bring... --- *[The Quiet Vacationer](https://quietvacationer.com/)*
