Korean Air’s new offering more than proves the high demand in this growing market and to and from Northeast Asia generally.  Budapest’s summer 2020 capacity to Northeast Asia has grown by more than 100% against summer 2019. Hungary’s capital now proudly boasts non-stop long-haul routes to Beijing, Chongqing, Sanya, Seoul, and Shanghai in Northeast Asia, along with Chicago, Doha, Dubai, New York, Philadelphia, and Toronto.

Commenting on Korean Air’s announcement, Kam Jandu, CCO, Budapest Airport, says: "It is great to see that there is yet another long-haul flight being launched from Budapest to Seoul in May.
