As fears of new coronavirus infection spread, travel sentiment has been severely undermined, and 'crazy prices' are pouring.

According to the airline industry, the profitable ride rate level is 75% per flight with normal fares.

If the situation continues, the diagnosis is that airlines can even face a serious crisis.

In Jeju Island, there are no new corona-confirmed patients, and there are no abnormalities in the subjects who were observed or self-contained.

Jeju Island will form a 'Corporate Overcoming Crisis Group' and will take counter measures for each sector, but it is not easy to overcome the difficulties.

Voices are calling for aggressive measures by the central government.
