[Asia Economy Reporter Yu Je-hoon] Jin Air announced on the 30th that it will resume flights on the Incheon~Fukuoka route starting December 1. This comes nine months after suspending the route due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to Jin Air, the Incheon~Fukuoka route will operate once a week (Tuesdays), departing Incheon International Airport at 9:05 AM and arriving at 10:25 AM, and departing Fukuoka Airport at 11:55 AM and arriving at 1:25 PM.

This resumption of service follows the Japanese government's easing of entry restrictions for Korea, expanding the international airports served from Narita (Tokyo) and Kansai (Osaka) to include Fukuoka. With this resumption, Jin Air's Japan routes will increase to three: Incheon~Narita, Incheon~Kansai, and Incheon~Fukuoka.

A Jin Air official stated, "This will help resolve the difficulties faced by business travelers who have been inconvenienced by the lack of Fukuoka flights," adding, "We will strictly adhere to in-flight disinfection and safety protocols to ensure customers can use our flights with confidence."

Meanwhile, Jin Air is also running a program waiving change fees once for Japan routes until the end of the year. Passengers who book tickets on Japan routes during this period can change their schedule or destination (limited to Japanese regions) once for free up to one day before departure. Additionally, benefits such as advance seat selection discount coupons and extra checked baggage allowance are available.
