"Gimpo~Jeju Route Accounts for 64%"

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Air Seoul announced on the 8th that the cumulative number of domestic passengers exceeded 3 million as of the end of last month. It took about 28 months since the first domestic regular route launch in 2019.

Air Seoul began its first flight on the Gimpo~Jeju route on October 27, 2019, and expanded domestic flights in earnest by consecutively launching the Gimpo~Busan (Gimhae) route in August 2020 and the Busan (Gimhae)~Jeju route in November 2020.

The cumulative number of passengers surpassed 1 million on December 30, 2020, about a year after launching domestic flights, and exceeded 3 million last month, about another year later.

The cumulative domestic passengers of Air Seoul are △1,953,189 (64.5%) on the Gimpo~Jeju route, △807,712 (26.7%) on the Gimpo~Busan route, △219,531 (7.2%) on the Busan~Jeju route, and △48,495 (1.6%) on the Cheongju~Jeju route. As of February 28, a total of 3,028,927 passengers have used the service.

An Air Seoul official explained, “Although the COVID-19 pandemic began soon after launching domestic flights, the number of passengers increased rapidly by carrying out various domestic promotions such as Mint Pass,” adding, “The monthly average load factor is also around 95%, the highest level among airlines.”

Meanwhile, Air Seoul is selling the domestic regular flight ticket ‘Mint Pass’ until the 13th. The Mint Pass allows customers to choose a pass according to the desired number of rides and can be used on all Air Seoul domestic routes. It is available for purchase through SSG.com.
