Air Seoul celebrates 10 years of Incheon–Takamatsu route

Air Seoul held a commemorative event at Takamatsu Airport in Japan to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its Incheon–Takamatsu route. The airline first launched this service in October 2016 as the first South Korean low-cost carrier to operate the route, initially flying three times a week.

Due to high demand, the service expanded to daily flights in 2018. As of September this year, the route has seen a cumulative total of approximately 610,000 passengers. On the day of the anniversary event, the airline recorded a round-trip load factor of 97%, following a yearly average of 87% in the previous year.

During the ceremony, officials including Air Seoul CEO Kim Jung-ho and Kagawa Governor Toyohito Ikeda discussed strengthening cooperation to promote tourism and cultural exchange between the two regions. Local airport leadership credited the airline with significantly increasing the visibility and accessibility of Kagawa Prefecture to South Korean travelers.
