South Korean airline Air Premia is set to expand its international operations by launching a new route between Seoul and San Francisco. Starting May 19, the airline will operate this service four times a week, joining the competitive market alongside Korean Air, Asiana Airlines, and United.
Since its debut in the fall of 2021, Air Premia has been steadily increasing its presence in the U.S. market, currently offering routes from Seoul to Los Angeles and Newark. The airline also operates a Seoul-Honolulu route, which is scheduled to continue through early March.
Air Premia's fleet includes Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, known for their comfort and efficiency. The aircraft are configured to enhance passenger experience, featuring 56 premium economy seats with a generous 42 inches of space between rows, and 253 economy seats, each offering 35 inches of legroom.
Tickets for the new Seoul-San Francisco route will be available for purchase starting Wednesday, providing travelers with another option for trans-Pacific travel, backed by the comfort and service that Air Premia is known for.
