The discount is automatically applied when Samsung Pay is selected as the payment method during the payment step, and it is limited to the first 3,000 customers.

T'way Air supports various simple payment systems including Samsung Pay, Naver Pay, Kakao Pay, Toss, Payco, PayPal, UnionPay, and EasyWell Pay, and has also introduced ‘T'way Pay,’ an exclusive simple payment service in partnership with Smile Pay, striving to enhance customer payment convenience.
