Rail Plus adds Korea pass to its Asia range

23 JULY: Rail Plus has added the Korea Rail Pass to its Asia range, saying its similarity in structure to Europe and Japan passes should make it a good seller here.

The pass has 3, 5, 7 and 10 consecutive-day options, priced respectively from $67, $101, $127 and $146, with group and youth concessions.

Rail Plus says 100,000 Australians a year visit Korea, acknowledging that many are there only on stopovers.
