We left our hotel in Chiang Mai at 5:00 a.m. on November 4th and arrived at our hotel in Seoul at 9:00 the next morning. No...we didn't take the long way around the world, we just spent alot of time in airports.
Our flight from Chiang Mai to Bangkok was delayed because of mechanical problems which meant we were going to miss our connection to Seoul via Hong Kong. They said that there wasn't a flight from Chiang Mai to Seoul until 11:30 p.m. or so. That wouldn't have been so bad because there are many more things to see in Chiang Mai, but they wouldn't let us out of the airport because we had already been through customs. We were there a few hours and then flew to Bangkok at 2:30 p.m. where we had to wait until 11:50 in the Business Class lounge, which was very nice, by the way. The Thai airlines people were very nice - very concerned about us.
One wonderful byproduct of this adventure was that we got to know our traveling companions better. I'm thankful for that. They are interesting and good people.
Our flight to Seoul was pretty good. Our seats were broken and so they reclined all the way. Noone was behind us, so we actually slept!
