Why book

Short, clean, very high-frequency route over the Yellow Sea and East China Sea. Korean carriers and Cathay combined provide 8+ daily departures.

The catch

Very few backup paths if this route is disrupted

Worth knowing

Seoul to Hong Kong avoids the warning area. No major warning area is shown in our current route data. Monitor typhoon disruptions July–October.
