The company that operates seven airports in Hokkaido has decided to conclude a partnership agreement with the operating company of Incheon Airport in South Korea.
By working hand in hand with one of the largest airports in Asia and tourism PR, we would like to capture the demand for international flights, which are expected to recover after the corona converges.
According to the people concerned, "Hokkaido Airport", which operates seven airports in Hokkaido such as New Chitose Airport, has decided to conclude a cooperation agreement with "Incheon International Airport Corporation", the operating company of Incheon Airport in South Korea, by the end of this month. ..
Incheon Airport is one of the largest "international hub airports" in Asia, with routes from all over the world concentrated.
The two companies will work together to promote Korean tourist destinations in Hokkaido and Hokkaido tourist destinations in South Korea, and aim to create a new system to increase the number of flights and passengers connecting the two.
At New Chitose Airport, the center of the seven airports, the number of international passengers reached a record high of 3.86 million, but due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, one passenger has been in operation since late March last year. The unusual situation continues.
However, since Hokkaido Airport expects that usage will return from short-distance international flights after the corona has converged, demand for international flights will recover by deepening cooperation with Incheon Airport, which is close and has a network with the world. I want to take it in as soon as possible.
