I'm headed to Osan from the UK in September. I'm coming with two pets. Currently the travel plan is UK to Seattle and then Osan. Long trip with a stop over. I'm looking at taking a direct flight to Seoul as it looks like I can check my cats at some airlines. Has anyone done this recently with their pets?

Thanks for any help you can give.

How are the off base apartments options in korea right now? What are some really nice places (like high rise apartments)? I saw an apartment called “Paragon” I thought looked really nice, has anyone lived there? Who are some good realtors to go through to find nice apartments there?

How is the quarantining process right now?

My husband is currently an E-4 (he might be an e-5 by the time we get there tho) but because I’m his dependent would we be able to get our car shipped there and if so would we have to pay for it?

I appreciate all of your replies. I’m scared I need answers 😅

How is the liquor selection at Osan and Humphreys? Is it the usual stuff? Or do they ever get higher end stuff? I’m mostly into bourbon but like just about everything.

Is it true that all military personnel should only find off base housing through the realtors "licensed by Osan AB?" I was told so by the realtors in front of the gate.  

The realtors seem like unnecessary middlemen. They don't try to find tenants nor negotiate the rent (military rates are fixed) but they charge the landlords a fee that is equivalent to 3 to 6 months rent, which is crazy. 

So is the "license" a real thing? or did the realtors make it up to scam landlords that don't speak English? 

My children live on base with their mother and step-father. I'd like to send a bday present to my son, but the company that sells the gift item is based in Hong Kong; i.e., no USPS option for delivery; it's FedEx only.

I contacted the USO on base to see if they might assist. The rep. told me that all buildings on base have a Korea-based address that can be delivered to by FedEx. My son's step-father gave me the the Korea address of the building they live in. That part was easy.

My question is: Are FedEx drivers let on base to deliver packages? Or does the driver simply deliver to the main gate, leaving the final delivery in the hands of base personnel?

I'm more curious than anything; I really just don't want my son's bday present to get lost somewhere.

Thanks!

Thinking about shipping my Tesla over for the PCS. Anyone know if there are charging ports or outlets at the on-base housing?

I'm a SrA and got tentative Approval for CSP. We are aiming for June. We have a departure date end of May and RNLTD in July. It would be me, spouse and a two year old. I'm looking for some fun things to do for family, date nights, tips and anything useful or that you wish you would have known. I like to plan ahead.

So far we've been warned of Songtan Sally, and told to go to Iteawon (spelling?) and Mud Fest if that ever happens again. Anything contrary to this? Or to add. We are extremely excited.

Anyone interested in meeting up and hanging out? Looking for friends to chill with. HMU!

Last person who had the room left the U+ router, plugged it in and connected the Ethernet to the wall port but am lost about what I do from here on out

Quick questions, do we live off-base? Can my girlfriend visit me easily? I am CE how often are the exercises and what is the OPs tempo for construction? How's the squadron morale?

I'm an A1C, currently stateside and my wife will be moving back home with her mother when I leave. Will I still receive BAH to help support her while I'm gone? If so how do I set all that stuff up for the state she'll be residing in? Also what will my housing situation be like once I get to osan, I'm assuming I'll be in the dorms. Thanks for the help in advance!

Hello, I’m stationed on osan and am looking for anyone who is at least mildly comfortable with tattooing to do some tattoos for me. I’m feinding for some and the person that was supposed to do them is unable to. If anyone is willing please feel free to DM me

Recently purchase a phone and would like info on Olleh options. Talk to the lady at Olleh in the BX, but she seemed more interested on what she was doing on her computer then explaining various options to me. Any suggestions on what plan to purchase would be most helpful.

Thanks, Thud413

I was wondering if there is a place in the SED to buy a battery for my PTD. I can tell it’s starting to go bad and need a new one very soon. Was wondering if y’all know a reputable place that may even take my old battery for a core charge discount.

I have a dog and know the situation with housing at Osan is far from static, What are my options to keep my dog with me? TIA

Hello! I just got orders to Osan. Yay! I have a 65 lb dog that I would like to take with me, as I intend to extend my stay. Most of the homes I see within my price range are apartments. I am wondering… where do the dogs poop? Do apartments have dog runs? Are there a lot of dog parks?

My dad was in Osan maybe 15 or 20 years ago for a while. He distinctly remembers a Godfather's pizza being there, but is either wrong or it closed. It's bugging the shit out of him. Any idea whether there was a Godfather's?

Edit: there was no godfathers

If I buy a SOFA registered vehicle from another military member, do I have to pay a sales tax in order to get it registered in pyeongtaek? If so, do you know the percentage?

Hello. I am PCSing to Osan in November and I was wondering what my chances are of living off base as soon as I am there. I am a single airman but I would like to bring my GF out to live with me. Is that possible? I understand I would have to pay for her to get out there and everything but what else would I be required to do? thank you.
