Korean Air offers three distinct First Class cabins among its highest class of service: “Kosmo Suites”, an updated version known as “Kosmo Suites 2.0”, and a third product called “Kosmo Sleeper”.
While all three are classified as First Class and are no doubt an outstanding way to fly, they’re not all created equal. Moreover, Korean Air First Class can be a fair bit more challenging to book with points compared to some other First Class products out there.
In this guide, we’ll cover everything there is to know about Korean Air First Class. We’ll look into what to expect on the ground and in the air, as well as everything you need to know about cabins, routes, and how to book using points.
The Korean Air First Class Experience
Korean Air offers a well-regarded First Class product that mainly focuses on the onboard experience, with some degree of variance depending on the aircraft type.
Ground Experience
As airlines around the world continue to elevate the ground experience, especially for First Class passengers, Korean Air doesn’t necessarily live up to the same high standards.
Korean Air’s flagship lounge in Seoul for First Class passengers has all of the base-level elements that you would expect in a lounge. You’ll enjoy an à la carte menu, a light buffet spread that includes Häagen-Dazs ice cream, Champagne, wine, spirits, and Korean soju.
However, the lounge has a limited dining area, and also lacks an office space with desks and workstations. There are a variety of other seating types available, including armchairs and lounge chairs.
There are showers available in the lounge, and you’ll also find an electric massage chair. But otherwise, there’s not much else that really makes this lounge feel truly “First Class”.
What’s more, if you are flying out of an outstation airport, you should lower your expectations even more. For example, the Korean Air First Class Lounge in New York is rather disappointing.
The lounge is essentially one room, with only one type of seat available. There’s a small TV room tucked away in the back of the lounge, too.
