jksandra Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 I was going to get surgery at TFD at the end of march, now I might not be able to go because of the virus. My transfer is in China... Anyone else having the same problem? And what do you think about all of it?
teina Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 Just transfer elsewhere. Can you do that? I'm going march 17th.
jksandra Posted February 19, 2020 Author Posted February 19, 2020 Could do that but its a lot more expensive and i don't have that muck money... My flight got cancelled yesterday so I'll have to reschedue the surgery, thanfully i haven't payed the deposition.
teina Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 What were you looking to do? Are you stuck on getting it done at that clinic? I'd try to bargain the price so that you could afford the transfer. Or try changing the dates to see if you can something cheaper that doesnt link with China.
teina Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 I use Kayak.com to find the best airline rates. I found a flight from the 24rth of March to April 2nd for less than $700usd. It transits through Russia. Here's the link https://www.kayak.com/flights/STO-ICN/2020-03-22-flexible-3days/2020-03-29-flexible-3days#r:941,d:9
jksandra Posted February 20, 2020 Author Posted February 20, 2020 Thank you, but I usually find flights for £500-600.. And like i said, i don't have enough money to go now unfortuantely. Im getting my jaw done at TFD and i'm not sure how im supposed to bargain the price But i'm probably gping april/mayinstead, and with a flight that transfer in France, Finland or netherlands.
teina Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I completely get that you dont have enough and to be honest neither do I so I've just been patient, contacted to a lot of clinics with good reps and used a few tactics to get the clinic I like to lower the price for me. I would just tell them that you've got an offer from another clinic that's lower and ask them to match the price. Tell them that you've already booked your flight even though you havent, to make them know your serious but needs a lower rate. They charge us foreigners way too much. I was quoted 4.5 mil for tip reduction and alar plasty and I got it down to 3 mil with one of the best clinics in Korea, in terms of safety and Doctors they have on their team. Also offer them your before and after pictures for promotional purposes that way they'll give it their all to give you the best results.
jksandra Posted February 20, 2020 Author Posted February 20, 2020 That's craaazy. I paid 6,6 mkrw for humpreduction and tip plasty.. Will definetly try your tips, just not sure how low to go on the price. Was quoted 5,5 for jaw shaving (can't shave a lot cause of my nerves). Thank you very much!

valenrina Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 SK is now ranked no. 2 in most no. of confirmed cases, behind China, not counting the Japan’s cruise ship. Not the best time to travel to Asia. SG is now down at rank 5... heng arh... gambateh everyone.
jksandra Posted February 24, 2020 Author Posted February 24, 2020 Yeah I heard so. I have a friend living in Seoul and she wasn't worried until recently. Apparently there was a woman who got infected but still visited public places even though shes been told several times to not be around people. That's why it spread so fast in Busan.
