Starting May 15, Korean Air will offer three weekly non-stop flights to Prague,
Czech Republic, from its Incheon hub using Airbus A330 aircraft.
Flights will depart Incheon on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 1:20 p.m.
and arrive in Prague at 5:40 p.m. the same day. The actual flying time is
approximately 11 hours and twenty minutes. Return flights leave Prague at 9:20
p.m. arriving in Incheon at 12:30 p.m. the following day.
Prague is one of the few cities in Europe whose rich cultural heritages remain
intact to this day. In addition to its artistic beauty, Prague is also known for its
music; it is a home to many of the world’s most renowned musicians.
“The new direct route will meet the increasing travel demand for the Central &
Eastern Europe and attract more tourists to the region as Czech Republic joined
EU this month,” says Y.H. Cho, Chairman and CEO of Korean Air, “The new
service also offers customers a faster, more time efficient access to the region and
Korean Air will continue to develop new services to offer our customers more
travel options and benefits as a part of our Service Excellence strategy.”
Korean Air
recently announced its new corporate slogan ‘Excellence in Flight’
with three supporting strategies: Service Excellence, Operational Excellence, and Innovative
Excellence as the airline celebrates it 35th anniversary this year.
Korean Air
said it is also planning to start codeshare operations on the Incheon ~ Prague
route with its SkyTeam partner CSA Czech Airlines this year and expecting to
further expand the cooperation onto intra-European routes using Prague as a
gateway to the region. |
