comment Do ATMs at Incheon International Aiport in South Korea have high fees or bad exchange rates
In Germany, ATMs often charge additional fees. The currency conversion is usually made by your own bank, making it irrelevant where you withdraw money, but in some countries (e.g. Switzerland), the ATM operating bank may do the currency conversion, potentially (most likely) ripping you off. I am not 100% sure, but I think I recall that Korean ATMs often charge extra, if you use them outside the bank's opening hours.

comment Mitfahrzentrale-style website for Norway?
Ups, sorry about the missing road. I happily trusted that Google Maps gave me the correct route from "Katterat stasjon, Katterat stasjon, 8517 Narvik, Norway" to Trældal, but it actually starts the route on Bjørnfjell station, where there is a road (but the train doesn't stop). But even if it is a little bit longer, a Swedish taxi from Riksgränsen is probably cheaper, if you dare to try.

Are you sure that you have the bus time table for Dec 20th? The train schedules change on Dec 10th and I would assume (or at least hope) that the bus schedule is changed as well.

comment Electrical compatibility between different countries
@RoryAlsop: That may be the case in some newer installations. Or is the entire Wikipedia article on "Electrical wiring in the United Kingdom" incorrect?

comment Are some airline routings unbookable?
On which date do you want to fly? I can find one way flights from Maputo to Portland, OR with Ethiopian Airlines for USD1,520.

@jpatokal: I edited my answer and linked to an article describing a person with a single entry Schengen visa being rejected entry to Andorra, since he would not be able to leave again.
