Korean Air to Start Low-Cost Airline Service
Posted on: Monday, 3 December 2007, 06:00 CST
Seoul-based Korean Air has said that it would launch budget airline Air Korea in 2008 with five planes - three Airbus 300 and two Boeing 737 - to countries including China, Japan, Thailand and Malaysia, by investing $21.5 million.
However, the maintenance and operation training would be conducted by Korean Air itself. The company said: "This outsourcing will ensure the operational safety of Air Korea, which has been indicated as a problem in some other low cost airlines."
