On the same day, the corporation held a promotional event at Gimpo Airport Domestic Terminal to commemorate the launch of the 'Smart Airport App 3.0' and to guide airport users.

The newly introduced app allows users to check real-time airport weather alerts and operational information such as flight arrivals and departures, cancellations, and delays amid frequent typhoons and heavy rains caused by recent global warming and abnormal climate conditions.

Additionally, the app unveiled the 'Airport Time Guide Service,' which provides real-time information on the time required and congestion levels from airport arrival to boarding, making it convenient to prepare for travel during worsening weather conditions or busy periods such as holidays.

Since the recovery from COVID-19, international flights at regional airports have increased. In particular, with the recent allowance of group tours from China, an additional 4,500 Korea-China route flights are expected to operate by the end of the year. The app also offers a function to check international flights by airport, making it easy to monitor both regular international routes and peak season irregular flights.

Furthermore, the app supports one-stop reservations through integrated booking services linked with the aviation and travel industries, including parking, rental cars, hotels, and travel packages. It provides all necessary information for travel and airport use in one app, such as a pet dog boarding service that allows travelers to travel comfortably by leaving their pets in care, and information on the Airport Culture Day Takeoff Week (26Week), which offers various attractions and entertainment every month.

Yoon Hyung-jung, President of Korea Airports Corporation, said, "We will continue to actively adopt the latest IT technologies to enhance customer convenience."
