🇻🇳​​[VIP Fam Tour DAY 1] The Beginning of Excitement! From Eastar Jet's Smart Departure to the Dignified Hospitality of Shilla Monogram ✨

Hello! Fellow neighbors~~ I've finally written the Day 1 review of the VIP fam tour with Danang Local x Shilla Monogram x Eastar Jet that so many of you have been waiting for.. (Since everyone else has already posted theirs, I guess I'll get my own little spotlight now, right??🤭 Sorry it's so late...) ▪︎Fam tour schedule: 2026.04.12~04.16 ▪︎Day 1: 26.04.12, Sunday

During our 3-night, 5-day trip~ I've written down the record of that first day, which was full of touching moments and convenience. If you're planning a trip to Da Nang, just referring to this alone will make a real difference in the quality of your trip! Please follow along closely~~~ (Except for our Gold-level and above neighbors!!🤣)

Incheon Airport Terminal 1: What is this wait?? Eastar Air The airline that became the wings of this fam tour was Korea's representative LCC, Eastar Air. ▪︎Flight Number: ZE593 ▪︎Aircraft Type: B738 ▪︎Seating Arrangement: 3-3 ▪︎Departure Terminal: Incheon International Airport Terminal 1 ▪︎Departure Time: 21:00 We were departing on Sunday, but... With a departure schedule at 9 PM on weekdays, it's an irresistibly attractive time slot for office workers like me who head to the airport right after work. However, the airport at night is always bound to be crowded with people, so don't forget the ways to cut down on your waiting time~

① Eastar Jet G Counter Self Bag Drop Incheon Airport Terminal 1 Eastar Jet's check-in counters are divided into F and G. ★F Counter: A regular counter where you check in directly with a staff member ★G Counter: A Self Bag Drop counter where you can send your luggage right away without waiting in line I had already checked in in advance via mobile, Since I had already completed online check-in, I headed straight to Counter G, where there was almost no line. After scanning my passport and mobile boarding pass, I printed out the baggage tag, stuck it right onto my suitcase, and placed it on the belt!! The whole check-in process was done in under 5 minutes.

② Zooming through with Smart Pass After sending off my luggage, I headed to the departure area using the Smart Pass I had registered in advance. The sheer thrill of breezing through with just facial recognition! The combination of self bag drop and Smart Pass is no longer optional — it's now an absolute must.

2. A Leisurely Dinner at the Martina Lounge Because I got through departure procedures so quickly, I ended up with quite a long stretch of free time before boarding. So I headed to the Martina Lounge on the east side, which was perfectly located close to the boarding gate. Since LCC flights don't include in-flight meals, it's important to eat well before departure. This time, I settled dinner with the buffet menu at Martina Lounge. While eating, chatting away happily with the fellow neighbor joining me on this trip about our upcoming press tour schedule, my heart filled with excitement for the journey. After resting comfortably in the lounge and heading to the gate right on time, I realized the start of a trip could not possibly be more relaxed than this.

3. Eastar Jet: Star of the East~ "Travel, made easy — Easy Flight" Eastar Jet carries the meaning of "Star of the East," and is a leading low-cost carrier (LCC) of South Korea. ▪︎Many comfortable, brand-new aircraft introduced (about 50% of its owned fleet) ▪︎All-seat leather seating provides a clean, hygienic environment ▪︎Comfortable flights with wide seat spacing ▪︎Various campaigns underway for your travel convenience ▪︎Free date/time change fee promotion for overseas trips currently underway The aircraft we boarded is the B738~!! As one of the best-selling aircraft in the world, it's known as the king of short-haul routes, proven for its efficiency and safety. They said it was this aircraft model. The seats are arranged in a 3-3 layout, and although there are no monitors, the interior was very clean and practically arranged. To sit in the front row, I bought advance seat selection. This was my first time flying Eastar Jet!! It was so, so comfortable and nice. I'd love to fly with them again next time ~~

Finally arrived at Da Nang Airport! I landed on the runway and took a shuttle, which took me straight to the arrival hall on the 1st floor of Da Nang Airport~~ There are a lot of flights arriving around the same time, but I was glad I could quickly make my way to the immigration counters~~

4. Da Nang Local: Immigration Fast Track & Pickup Service After about 4 hours and 50 minutes of flight, I arrived at Da Nang International Airport!! Arriving late at night, I was worried about whether the immigration line would be long, but I had a secret weapon from Da Nang Local. It was the immigration fast track service! As soon as I got off the plane, through the dedicated line The feeling of breezing through immigration quickly~ It's truly the best!! Only those who've experienced it know~~!! After picking up your luggage and coming outside, if you head toward the Star Cafe on the right, you can meet the Danang local pickup helper. Among the 10 fam tour participants, it was registered only under the representative's name, so there was a bit of confusion... someone waiting for me at an overseas airport Having a private vehicle is truly reassuring. On the way to our lodging, riding in a cool and comfortable car, even the humid night air of Danang felt sweet~ I don't think that's just my imagination~ On the way to the lodging, all 10 participants chatted away happily, filling the ride with laughter 🤭

🏨 5. Shilla Monogram Danang: "Luxury welcome food filled with warmth (jeong)" We finally arrived at the base camp for this familiarization tour, Shilla Monogram Danang! True to its identity as the first overseas 'Monogram' brand launched by Hotel Shilla, this place is a space where Korean sentiment blends harmoniously with local culture, and even late at night, the staff's service was kind and courteous.

But the real emotion began the moment we opened the door to our room. On the table, a welcome food spread filled with warm hospitality for us was carefully arranged. Crispy and savory local flavor, Banh Mi!! Fragrant wine to celebrate the first night of our trip!! And fresh tropical fruits bursting with sweetness! Just as we were starting to feel a little hungry after the flight... The banh mi I enjoyed was absolutely delicious. We set aside the Alstora wine carefully, hehe. Even better, there was a handwritten note placed there, and it was a moment where I truly felt, "Wow, I'm really being treated as a precious guest." The modern and cozy interior, as well as the room condition, were absolutely perfect to my liking~ As for the view, well, you already know it's breathtakingly beautiful, right??🤭 Thanks to Shilla Monogram's elegant and gracious hospitality, the first night of our familiarization tour ended beautifully, immersed in happiness.
