AirAsia will add more flights to Seoul’s Incheon International Airport later this year.

Operated by the airline’s long-haul unit, AirAsia X, the Kuala Lumpur-Seoul route is currently flown daily, using an Airbus A330-300 aircraft. But from 2 July 2014, the airline will add a four extra weekly flights on the route, taking the total frequency to 11 flights per week. And then from 2 December 2014, AirAsia X will start operating a double daily KL-Seoul service.

“Overall, the airline has carried over half a million passengers [on] its Korean routes since it began operations in Korea in 2010… with an average of 83% passenger load in 2013,” said AirAsia X’s CEO, Azran Osman-Rani.

“AirAsia X will remain committed to Korea this year as it is one of our core markets in the Asia Pacific region. Our expansion plans will materialise further when we establish our hub in Thailand, receive six more aircraft and move into the new KLIA2 airport this year,” he added.

In addition to Seoul, AirAsia X currently operates four weekly flights to Busan.
