[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Lotte Tour Development announced on the 31st that it will recruit participants for a coastal cruise experience group in collaboration with the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries until the 10th of next month. This marks the resumption of the cruise experience group, which had been suspended due to COVID-19, after more than two years.


The experience group will select a total of 5 trips (200 people), with 80 COVID-19 volunteers and 120 general participants. For the 2 trips on July 1 and 8, anyone who has volunteered for at least 3 days as a COVID-19 volunteer or worked at institutions such as hospitals and public health centers can apply. For the 3 trips on July 15, 22, and 29, any South Korean citizen aged 19 or older who has completed COVID-19 vaccination and has no disqualifications for overseas travel can apply.


The cruise product used by the experience group includes visits to Busan’s hot spots such as the Beach Train, Songdo Cable Car, and Gamcheon Culture Village, along with boarding the national ship, the Panstar Dream. Participants will travel along the beautiful Busan coastline for 2 nights and 3 days, visiting Taejongdae, Oryukdo, and the night view of Gwangandaegyo Bridge. Participants only need to cover a boarding fee of 20,000 KRW, while other program experience costs are supported by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries.



A representative from Lotte Tour Development said, "Since 2016, we have been working to revitalize and expand the base of domestic cruise tourism by operating cruise experience groups with over 500 participants. This time, it is especially meaningful as we are recruiting COVID-19 related volunteers who have dedicated themselves over the past two years as participants."
