SkyTeam's fixed-chart holdout, and the one Asian program here with a mile that lives 10 years. While Delta and Aeroméxico went fully dynamic, SKYPASS kept a published chart with real sweet spots — Korean's own business and first cabins to the Americas are the crown jewels, and Delhi's daily ICN nonstop makes Korea and onward North America a plausible plan. The catch for an Indian wallet is the front door: no card reaches it, so you're paying Accor 2:1 or IHG 5:1 to get in, and Korean loads fuel surcharges on its own metal. Partner awards are round-trip only.
₹/pt = (typical cash − surcharge) ÷ points, computed only from sourced numbers — the build
fails if a row's arithmetic doesn't. A dash means no honest cash anchor exists; the row's
note below says why. Dynamic-priced programs are framed as “typical”, never guaranteed.
Chart-priced, not live seats. Every corridor behind this page is priced off published award charts — 39,855 options across 2,450 corridors. 37% of the 39,855 priced options on the board are stated
estimates for programmes that publish no chart; they are marked ~ est. and never crowned the play. Nobody here can see
whether a seat exists on your date — confirm the space with the programme
before you transfer. Points that leave your issuer do not come back.
Row by row
Seoul (ICN) → US/Canada, business Saver one-way (off-peak)
₹2.96/pt
The chart's headline — 62,500 miles one-way in Korean's business to North America, bookable one-way (unlike partner awards, which are round-trip only). Korean's own fuel surcharges (~₹30–40k) and inflated paid-J fares both flatter and complicate the ₹/pt; treat ~₹3 as a ceiling. A through-award originating in India prices in a higher regional band — pair with the DEL–ICN leg below.

Seoul (ICN) → US, first class Saver one-way (off-peak)
₹4.50/pt
The legendary Korean first cabin for 80,000 miles off-peak (120,000 peak) — one of the best-value international first products left on any published chart. ₹/pt computed against a conservative ₹4L paid fare; real first fares run higher. This, more than anything, is why SKYPASS is worth the steep hop in.

Delhi → Seoul (ICN), business one-way on Korean metal
₹1.84/pt
The India-relevance play — Korean's daily DEL–ICN in business off the Korea↔South Asia band (regular season; confirm the exact level at booking, the regional bands move). Mind the fuel surcharge, but it still clears our ₹1 anchor comfortably and connects onward to the crown-jewel Americas awards above.

No Indian card transfers into Korean Air SKYPASS directly.
None of the 40 destinations our issuers actually reach — tracked in data/transfer-partners.yaml — is this program, so there is no
direct ratio to print. The road in is a hop, and this is it: every chain the optimizer will actually walk, best chain per source currency, cheapest to mint first.
