Korean Air to use Dreamliner to Prague
The winter schedule will see a change in the type of aircraft used
Korean Air announced that starting Oct. 29, 2018, it will fly a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner between Prague and Seoul.
The aircraft is configured for 269 passengers in three classes
“We are very glad that we can introduce the most modern aircraft from our fleet to passengers between Prague and Seoul. I firmly believe that the Dreamliner will positively contribute to consolidating Korean Air's position in Prague, which is also one of Europe's most popular destinations,” said Yeong Ho Choe, Korean Air general manager for the CEE region
“Deploying the Boeing 787 Dreamliner on the route from Prague to Seoul will enable passengers traveling to Asia to travel more comfortably in one of the most modern and especially quietest aircraft of the day. Its use in Prague will be in line with our responsible approach to sustainable development, especially to solving noise pollution from air traffic,” Václav Řehoř, chairman of the board of directors of Prague Airport, said in a press release.
“It’s also a great demonstration of how a route that has been in operation since 2004 has exponentially evolved, and now offers passengers more and more services on board,” he added
Passengers will also see a difference on board. The interior uses LED technology that changes depending on the time and environment of the aircraft. Cabin windows are 78 percent larger, and each window is equipped with a button for five different levels of darkening.
The Dreamliner for the Prague route has six first-class seats, 18 business class seats and 245 seats in economy.
Every first- and business-class seat has access to the aisle and just pressing a button turns it into a horizontal bed. Travelers can also choose from a wide range of Korean and international menus in all classes
Due to the change of type of aircraft to the Dreamliner, compared to last year winter’s schedule, the seating capacity is almost 8.5 greater
In 2019, Korean Air will celebrate its 50th anniversary.
