This if for our 10th wedding anniversary. We are in our late 30s/early 40s, so the length of the trip, while extreme, can be done. We have done trips to Australia, New Zealand and Tahiti. I work for Southwest, if that helps you understand the agreements we have. I don't think we have a deal with Garuda (was my first hope), nor do we have any agreement with Thai. Cathay for the two of us was around $900 Zed Med rountrip. We would have to put in a formal request to see how much it would be on KE. I believe Cathay is a change in HK and KE is a change in Seoul. Any good seasons to non-rev there. I don't worry about the weather, I'd rather be less stressed about getting to and from. Thanks again for all your help. I'd be happy to return the favor if you need SWA flight info.
