Lufthansa’s Enduring Partnership with South Korea: Celebrating 40 Years of Air Connectivity

Since 1984, Lufthansa German Airlines has played a pivotal role in fostering air travel between Germany and South Korea. Initially, flights included a stopover in Alaska, but by 1991, direct flights were introduced, solidifying the connection between the two nations. In a groundbreaking move, Lufthansa has partnered with Korea’s KTX rail service to offer a seamless rail-and-air travel option promoting sustainability. Passengers can enjoy streamlined services like boarding pass issuance, luggage check-in, and immigration clearance right at the Seoul Station City-Airport Terminal. With 17 weekly flights between Europe and Korea, including the first direct flight from Seoul to Zurich, Lufthansa continues to demonstrate its commitment to the Korean market.
