Korean Air will be launching a new daily service between Seoul
Incheon and Macao from 1 July, making it the only full-service carrier
connecting the two cities.
With a total flight time of approximately three hours and 40 minutes,
the service will deploy the airline’s fleet of Airbus A321neos from 15
July. The A321neo is also equipped with fully lie-flat seats in Prestige
Class.
The new Macao service provides Greater Bay Area travellers with more
flight options, with travellers from southern Chinese cities such as
Jiangmen, Zhongshan, and Taishan being able to reach Seoul Incheon in as
little as two hours.
Travelers from the region will also have the option to connect to
Korean Air's extensive North America and Japan destinations via Seoul
Incheon International Airport.
Flights depart from Seoul Incheon International Airport at 9:15pm and
arrive at Macao International Airport at 11:55pm. The return flights
depart from Macao International Airport at 1:10am the next day and
arrive at Seoul Incheon International Airport at 6:00am.
"Currently, the international travel market is gradually recovering,
and the demand for premium airline services is growing,” said Yohan
Park, vice president and head of China regional headquarters, Korean
Air.
