Use Daegu International Airport to travel to Hong Kong your summer vacation!

To invigorate Daegu International Airport and enhance the convenience of international flight passengers, Daegu City has joined forces with Korean Air and opened a direct air route linking Daegu and Hong Kong for the upcoming summer vacation season.

The Daegu-Hong Kong route is expected to vitalize Daegu International Airport amid a gradual rebound of air travel demand on the back of an economic recovery.

At a time when Daegu needs to attract more tourists to the city, in the run-up to a variety of international events, including the IAAF World Championships Daegu 2011 and Visit Daegu 2011, the new air route to be operated in the summer peak season (from July 22 through August 22) will better serve Daegu citizens seeking international flights and attract more foreign tourists to the city. It is expected that the benefits of this route will help to revive Daegu International Airport, which has been in the doldrums for some time.

Nonstop flights to Hong Kong will depart at 9:30 p.m. every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, and those to Daegu will leave 2:30 a.m. every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday.

If the temporary direct line between Daegu and Hong Kong proves a success, it will turn into a regular route from this year’s winter season. 

A source at the Daegu City office said, “We will make all-out efforts to attract a large number of passengers through active promotional campaigns so that regularly scheduled fights can operate on the route.”
