Korean Air will operate a nonstop international tourism flight on Feb. 27.
Through the Korean Air’s international tourism product, the first of its kind, passengers will board 380 aircraft (KE 9021 flight) at Incheon International Airport at 10:30 a.m. and fly over Ganneung, East Sea Coast, Busan, Straits of Korea, and Jeju and return to Incheon International Airport again at 1 p.m.
The product will be sold only to Koreans with Korean passports and will use the non-landing tourist flight only at Incheon International Airport Passenger Terminal 1 on the day of the flight.
The same immigration procedures as international flights are carried out, so you must bring your passport with you. In addition, in-flight meals and beverage services are not provided in accordance with the in-flight meal ban guidelines, and in-flight duty-free products can only be purchased in advance.
The sales seats are 223 seats, including 12 First Class seats, 47 Prestige Class seats, and 164 Economy Class seats, and are strictly followed by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport's distancing quarantine guidelines for safe travel.
An amenity that enables all passengers to experience the upper class and safety kits consisting of three KF94 masks, hand sanitizer, and hand sanitizer tissues will be offered to all passengers, and Korean Air boarding miles for each class are also provided.
First-class and Prestige class passengers can also use the Korean Air Lounge service at Incheon International Airport Passenger Terminal 1. In addition, it provides various benefits such as discount coupons for hotels in Korea.
More detailed information on product purchases and benefits can be found at The Hyundai Travel, a travel agency in charge of selling international tourism flight products.
Sales of the product will continue until 1 p.m. on Feb. 25, but it may be closed early on a first-come, first-served basis depending on the situation.
Korean Air plans to operate non-landing tourism flight products three times on March 6, 13, and 27 along with Hanjin Tourism in March.
An official of Korean Air said, "We hope this product will help ease customers' thirst for air travel due to COVID-19, and we will continue to operate nonstop international tourism flight products focusing on co-prosperity with travel agencies through indirect sales."
