Jeju Via Seoul Sparks Indian Tourist Entry Fears

Indian tourists eye South Korea's Jeju Island, Hong Kong, and Jordan's Aqaba, but arriving via Seoul triggers entry denials under strict visa-free rules. Jeju demands direct flights from abroad, rejecting mainland transits like Sachin Awasthi's case, leading to detention risks. Hong Kong and Aqaba impose similar onward travel proofs and no-hub arrivals. Flyers review itineraries meticulously, print bookings, and carry cash proofs to evade harsh holding rooms.
