[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Wanyong] The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 11th that it plans to increase the number of flights on the Gimpo-Haneda route from the current 28 times per week to 56 times per week starting from the 30th.


This increase in flights is a follow-up measure to the resumption of the Gimpo-Haneda route on June 29 (8 times per week) and the increase to 28 times per week on July 25, based on an agreement between the Korean and Japanese governments.


After the 30th, airlines operating the Gimpo-Haneda route will be able to operate two round trips daily between the two airports, and the actual timing of the increased flights will be decided by each airline considering demand. Detailed flight schedules by airline can be sequentially checked on the websites of the airlines operating the Gimpo-Haneda route.



The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport will continue consultations with the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism to further increase the number of flights on the Gimpo-Haneda route, considering future demand trends, and plans to actively support the expansion of other Japanese routes where air travel demand is increasing due to recent announcements such as visa-free entry permissions.
