Korean Air to Launch Direct Flights to Lisbon

Korean Air, one of the leading airlines in the world, has announced the launch of scheduled charter flights to Lisbon, Portugal, from September 11 to October 25. The airline will operate three weekly flights between Seoul Incheon and Lisbon on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. These flights, serviced by the airline’s Boeing 787-9 fleet, will make 20 round trips during the two months.

The scheduled charter flights are the only nonstop flights between Northeast Asia and Lisbon. Previously, travellers had to transfer to neighbouring countries such as France and Spain or switch to land transport upon arrival in Europe. The new direct flights will streamline the journey, making trips to Lisbon and its adjacent cities more accessible.

Lisbon, nestled along the banks of the Tejo (Tagus) River on the Iberian Peninsula, offers a combination of historical and contemporary attractions. The city is an appealing destination for leisure seekers and cultural explorers, from the beautiful beaches to multiple UNESCO World Heritage sites. Lisbon is frequently portrayed in various media and remains a popular destination for backpackers and honeymooners.

For those looking to immerse in the local culture, a visit to the Jeronimos Monastery in the Belém district is highly recommended. This site is celebrated as the cradle of the Portuguese egg tart. A tram ride through Lisbon’s streets also offers an intimate view of its rich history and vibrant daily life. Beyond Lisbon, the city of Porto is easily accessible by train. Known for its unique charm and cultural richness, Porto provides a deeper glimpse into Portugal’s local flavours and traditions.

Tickets for these flights are available on the Korean Air website, mobile app, or through travel agencies. Korean Air also plans to extend the route’s operations into the winter season, offering travellers more opportunities to explore the enchanting city of Lisbon.
