Who Buys the Plane Ticket?
Your school should pay for your ticket. In some situations your school will buy your ticket for you, while in others you will be reimbursed for the ticket cost. We had to buy our tickets in Canada, and our school reimbursed us for the most direct flight to Korea, no frills and no fuss (so we couldn’t bump ourselves up to first class). We took a 14 hour direct flight from Toronto to Korea on Korea Air. It left at midnight (from Canada) and arrived at 2AM (Canadian time) but 3AM (Korean time). The flight cost us $1150 per ticket, and the school paid us back in our first paycheck.
