County Governor Kim San, Provincial Assemblyman Jeong Gilsu, and Activation Promotion Committee Participate in Visitor Welcome Campaign

[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] On the 16th, a Pacific Airlines aircraft scheduled to operate until March 30 next year took off vigorously from the runway at Jeonnam Muan International Airport, heading to Nha Trang, Vietnam.

Out of a total of 186 seats, 184 passengers were on board, showing a nearly full occupancy rate.

According to a representative of J&Tour, the charter flight organizer, the reservation rate is currently at 80% until January among the entire schedule until March, indicating high expectations for the Southeast Asian routes departing from Muan Airport this winter season.

In particular, 34 Vietnamese group tourists jointly recruited by Jeollanam-do, the Korea Tourism Organization, and Hana Tour ITC also entered Jeollanam-do for tourism via inbound flights before departure, making the usually quiet Muan Airport waiting lounge busy with passengers for the first time in a while.

Additionally, at the Muan Airport waiting lounge on this day, Kim San, Muan County Governor, Jeong Gil-su, Provincial Assembly member, Jeong Hee, Muan Airport Director, and Park Il-sang, Chairman of the Muan International Airport Revitalization Promotion Committee, attended together to celebrate the resumption of international flights since last July and to promote Muan International Airport to passengers.

The Muan International Airport Revitalization Promotion Committee distributed promotional materials to passengers moving between the arrival exit and the international waiting lounge and carried out promotional activities for the use of Muan Airport. They also extended farewell greetings wishing all 184 departing passengers a safe and enjoyable trip.

Park Il-sang, the chairman who prepared the event, said, “It is touching to see Muan Airport, which had been stagnant for nearly three years due to the impact of COVID-19, actively moving again after a long time,” and added, “We will do our best in promotional activities to diversify routes even after the winter season.”

Governor Kim San, who attended the campaign, also stated, “It is very pleasing to see the busy scene of Muan Airport after a long time, and we will work together to further expand the winter routes so that next year it can take a step forward as a hub airport in the southwest region.”

Meanwhile, the winter schedule at Muan Airport includes eight charter flights to four countries?Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, and Cambodia?until the end of March, and reservations are actively being made through local travel agencies.
