ARRIVAL

The tour members arriving from the USA had found traveling via Seoul is the most convenient way of getting to Ulaan Baator. Either from Los Angeles, USA  or from Vancouver, Canada there are direct flights to Seoul. Delta and American Airlines fly to Seoul. You can use your frequent flyer for arriving Ulaan Baator on Mongolian Air as Mongolian Air is a partner of Delta ( This information is subject to change with Airline policies - please make sure you consult with DELTA for their latest policies).
Mongolian Air leaves from Seoul at 07:30 AM arriving at Ulaan Baator around mid day.
The choices of the previous tour members about staying in Seoul was varied. 
To give you an idea : some chose to spend few days in Seoul so those people preferred to stay at  the capital city, Seoul. However, most of the tour members had expressed extreme satisfaction for the arrangements they made for staying at the AIR PORT HOTEL right in the terminal building
