Warning areas on routings via Seoul

Every area below is recorded on at least one routing we cover through, from or to Seoul. An area that is close on the map but recorded on none of them is not listed. Closeness is not something we measure.

Avoid advice means airlines have been told to stay out of an area while the warning is in force. That is not the same as closed airspace: an airport inside an advice area can be open with flights running normally, and each area's summary says which it is.
