LOT Polish Airlines opens direct flight to Korea
LOT has launched a direct flight between Poland and South Korea, hoping to increase travel and investment between the two nations, the airline said Tuesday. Starting Monday, LOT operates 3 flights a week between Warsaw Chopin and Incheon International using a 252-seat Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It is LOT's third non-stop flight to Asia, following China in 2008 and Japan in January, it said. In light of the direct flight, the Polish airline signed a memorandum of understanding with the Korea Tourism Organisation on developing tour package programs in both countries. "We need to diversify the inbound tourism market that has mainly focused on China and Japan," Kim Jung-ah, a KTO official, said. "We hope the direct flight between South Korea and Poland could help draw more travellers from Eastern European nations." <br/>
