Parata Airlines announced on the 2nd that it has launched a new flight between Incheon and Osaka, Japan on a schedule of 7 times a week on the 1st. This is the second Korea-Japan route after Tokyo.

The Incheon-Osaka route will depart from Incheon at 11:10 a.m. and Osaka at 14:30 p.m. every day until March 28 next year, and a 168-seat A320-200 aircraft will be introduced.

Parata Airlines, which acquired Fly Gangwon, was re-issued an Air Operation Certificate (AOC) by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in September to meet enhanced safety standards. After that, in about 3 months, they opened all 5 domestic (Jeju) and international routes (Tokyo, Osaka, and Danang, Nha Trang, and Phu Quoc in Vietnam), which were aimed at launching this year.

The Incheon-Nha Trang route and the Incheon-Phu Quoc route were newly launched on the 26th of last month with a schedule of 4 times a week. The A320-200 (168 seats) was used on the Nha Trang route, and the 260-seat A330-200 model was used on the Phu Quoc route.

In particular, the Phu Quoc route enhanced premium elements such as dedicated check-in counters and airport lounge access benefits, and introduced a new model that provides business class at a reasonable price at a large airline (FSC) level.
