LOT to connect Poland with South Korea

Poland's flagship carrier LOT Polish Airlines has announced a new connection from Warsaw to the South Korean capital, Seoul. The first flight is scheduled for October 17, 2016. LOT will fly to Seoul three times a week (on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays). The tickets cost from PLN 1,599 and went on sale on Wednesday. “Korean companies have invested over $1.7 billion in Poland, and they have invested many times more in the whole of Central and Eastern Europe. Since today, LOT can guarantee the most comfortable travel between Seoul and our part of Europe, without tiresome transfers in large, crowded airports of Western Europe,” said Rafał Milczarski, LOT CEO. In January, LOT launched a connection with Tokyo featuring its Boeing 787 Dreamliner, the first new long-distance flight after the restructuring of the company, which has been beset by financial difficulties in recent years.
