▲ Korean business officials on their way home from New Delhi, India 


More than 160 Korean business officials, including business travelers staying in India, have returned to their home countries to escape the spread of Corona 19.



According to the Korean Embassy in India and the local community on the 8th, 164 Koreans who stayed in India for business trips and other reasons departed from Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi at around 9:50pm local time on the 8th through an Asiana Airlines special flight.



This is the third special flight from India to Korea this month.



It is known that most of the passengers on this day are business travelers related to the construction of Samsung Display's factory, and Korean residents are not included.



Initially, this special aircraft was scheduled to take off at 9 pm, but the schedule was delayed due to delays in check-in procedures.



It is reported that Koreans will use six additional special flights from New Delhi to Incheon, which will be prepared within this month.



This month, a total of 12 non-scheduled flights between India and Korea, including special planes departing on that day, are being promoted.



On this day, passengers boarded the plane after receiving negative confirmation from the real-time gene amplification method Corona 19 test locally.



After entering the country, they live in quarantine for a total of 14 days and undergo diagnostic tests three times in Korea.
