Yeah...only 1 flight sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif such a waste to arrive in Korea so late.

Just booked my flight on the 18th June 2011 biggrin.gif Coming back on the 24th.

No choice but to travel at that period as I have to plan around my college timetable rclxub.gif

Hopefully no flight delays too ~_~"

I'll probably stay at hostels, they cost around 23USD per pax a night.

guys two weeks of accommodation would cost how much? 1k per person? =(
*
I did a little googling and I think the cheapest you can find is approximately RM50> (this is hostel, price per pax)
If you want to find a double room, probably a room will cost you RM 1xx a night. (applies to hostels and budget hotels)
Depends. If you want just somewhere to sleep then I'm sure you can find somewhere cheaper. But if you want a place that looks nice and comfortable (not rundown kinda feeling), then it should be that price...

hi can i ask...tix at rm930 for 2 pax izit cheap for july?
*
Well depends on whether u add baggage + food + insurance and all that.
For me I booked total was RM620+RM20 convenience charge.
Reason? Because we only bought 2 meals for our flight to Seoul. No meals coming back XD
And I only checked in 1 luggage, depart 15kg, return 20kg lol.
Planned to bring 1 backpack and 1 hand carry each to the plane laugh.gif should be enough for a week since my trip is during summer rclxub.gif

Even you know how to read Korean, you still need Korean Social ID to book the Jeju Air (or other budget airlines) flight ticket.

Get reliable local tour agency to book for you, usually RM15 - RM30 service fee per ticket, you can do it by contacting them online, before you go there.

Or you can try Jeju Yeha tour, around RM850 per person for 3 days 2 nights (includes: return flight ticket Seoul-Jeju, accomodation, English speaking tours, meals). If you go for backpack, focus on Seoul planning, and leave the Jeju to tour agency, since just a relaxing island.

Hmm, I'm only going to be there for 7 days and minus 1 day for the flight from KL rclxub.gif Don't think I want to spend 3 days in Jeju also, lol
Just that the view looks awesome ! wub.gif

QUOTE(panmee_laksa @ Aug 5 2010, 10:27 PM)
How about taking  ship to Jeju??I think it's quite reasonable...

We can take a ship?? From South is it?
Any idea on the cost? hmm.gif

Haeundae beach? biggrin.gif

I'm still contemplating, as going down to Busan will take half a day already. The beach looks wonderful though...but have to watch my expenses sad.gif
Plan on going crazy shopping there, heheee
