Nov 27, 2020 (newstodate): Korean Air is suspending plans for flights to Croatia in summer 2021.
Till now, plans were to return services from March 30, 2021 with three weekly rotations between Seoul and Zagreb using Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft - but this has now been called off.
Korean Air paid its first-ever visit to Croatia in September 2010, operating two chartered Boeing 777 flights from Seoul to Zagreb Airport on September 18 and 25, respectively, carrying Korean and other Asian tourists on their first visit to the country.
Korean Air next introduced summer flights to Croatia in 2014, and according to the air services agreement signed in 2015 between Croatia and South Korea, Korean Air would be allowed to operate up to seven weekly rotations between the two countries.
Replacing the seasonal summer flights, Korean Air launched year-round services on the route from September 2018, but the flights were again downgraded to summer-only flights from 2019 - and these flights were then suspended as the Coronavirus hit the markets.
