Join me on an indepth flight review as I experience Korean Air's brand new Airbus A321neo on its inaugural route from Phnom Penh to Seoul. In this comprehensive trip report, I showcase the complete passenger experience including checkin at the terminal, airport lounges, boarding and seating, inflight dining and entertainment, amenities, and arrival at ultramodern Incheon airport.

My journey starts off with a preflight beer at the cafe in Phnom Penh airport's sleek checkin concourse. I then make my way through swift security and immigration to the bright and expansive duty free shopping area airside. At the gate, Korean Air's nextgeneration A321neo awaits freshly delivered from the Airbus factory this year.

Settling into the new leather seats in economy, I find a comfortable amount of legroom and review the full range of amenities. Pushing back from the gate, we swiftly accelerate down the runway thanks to the plane's quiet yet powerful new engines. The friendly crew distribute a light snack service shortly after reaching cruising altitude.

The stateoftheart inflight entertainment system offers a huge selection of movies, TV shows, and music to occupy the 5+ hour flight time. I test out the intuitive responsive map feature and other widgets providing useful flight data. Midway through, I take a quick trip to the lavatory to find it clean and modern.

Soon enough, the crew brings around an authentic Koreanstyle breakfast boxed meal along with beverage service. Beginning our descent, I gaze out the window upon the Korean coastline and Seoul in the distance. A smooth touchdown on the runway caps off this inaugural passenger flight on Korean Air's brand new Airbus A321neo. From start to finish, this is a full inflight experience review on Korean Air's latest narrowbody jet.
