Due to the Impact of 'Novel Coronavirus'... Jeju Air Suspends Operations on 6 Routes to China

Speed of National Airlines Suspending China Routes

[Asia Economy Reporter Yu Je-hoon] Jeju Air announced on the 29th that it has decided to suspend operations on six routes to China to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (Wuhan pneumonia).

The routes Jeju Air decided to suspend are ▲ Muan~Sanya (from January 29) ▲ Muan~Zhangjiajie (from January 30) ▲ Incheon~Haikou·Nantong, Gimhae~Zhangjiajie (from February 1) ▲ Incheon~Sanya (from February 2).

Originally, Jeju Air operated 17 routes only in China. With this additional suspension measure, including the five routes that had already entered winter season suspension (Incheon~Shijiazhuang, Gimhae~Shijiazhuang·Yantai, Muan~Yanji, Daegu~Beijing), Jeju Air will reduce about 65% of its total China routes. The routes Jeju Air will continue to operate as before are six routes: Incheon~Qingdao·Weihai·Jiamusi·Yantai·Yanji·Harbin.

Meanwhile, as the novel coronavirus situation spreads, domestic airlines are hastily implementing suspension measures on some China routes. Asiana Airlines and Eastar Jet announced the suspension of three and four China routes respectively on the same day. Air Seoul also suspended all its China routes (Incheon~Zhangjiajie·Linyi).
