South Korea: Korean Air flights disrupted by strike

Event

Korean Air flights departing from Seoul’s Incheon International Airport (ICN) have been facing significant delays since late December due to a strike by aircraft cleaners. The strike was initially scheduled to last until Friday, January 12, but has been extended to an unspecified date. Knock-on disruptions are also possible throughout the Korean Air network. Flight cancelations cannot be ruled out.

Advice

Travelers are advised to confirm the status of their flights prior to departure for the airport.
