Incheon Airfort
(www.airport.or.kr)
SKY SURFING The website for South Korea's newest airport was experiencing problems in the run-up to the hub's March 29 opening (see New Arrival). But managers say that once the bugs are fixed, the site will be an unrivaled source of information, not just on flights but on all airlines servicing Seoul. It also offers weather reports, a comprehensive hotel guide, online shopping and access to travel agents.

Heart and Soul
(mpotourism.com)
Straight from the source the state of Madhya Pradesh, in the middle of India, offers something from every era of the country’s history. This easy-to-use site sponsored by the state’s tourism development commission, focuses on cultural and natural heritage. It even has some exotic – and erotic – electronic postcards to send to friends back home.
Along The Mekong
(www.visit-mekong.com)
DELTA SURFING The official site for the Mekong region covers all six countries-China, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Burma-that are found along the 4,800-km river. This government-sponsored site is critical of nothing, but the sunny tone is balanced by the addition of a library of travel articles written by independent writers who have visited the region. Links include online hotel reservation.
