Then, whether it will be okay for Korea, let’s look at that part this time.

Currently, there are 29 aircraft in Korea that have been advised to stop operating.

Because of the corona, only 17 of them were flying these days, and domestic airlines are also likely to stop operating.

Asiana Airlines changed its Boeing 777, which was scheduled to leave for Manila at 7:20 on the evening of the 22nd, to another aircraft.



There are 128 units worldwide with PW 4000 engines, which Boeing of the United States has recommended to suspend operations, and 29 units in Korea, including 16 Korean Air, 9 Asiana Airlines, and 4 Jin Air.



Asiana Airlines has not yet issued a directive from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport, but decided to voluntarily suspend all nine aircraft types.



Korean Air said, "14 out of 16 aircraft have been suspended. The remaining two are new engines with low aging, but if the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport takes action, we will announce the suspension."



Jin Air, which is operating four of these aircraft, will also decide whether to operate according to the guidelines of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, saying that there is no flight schedule until the weekend.



The Department of Homeland plans to make a decision to suspend operations as soon as it is communicated that the Federal Aviation Administration will make a decision quickly because of the urgency of the matter.



[Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport officials: It is said that it will be released within a few days, so we are constantly (watching).

It comes out before the weekend, I'm sure it will come out.]



Domestic airlines have stated that there are no cancellations of the route schedule because there are many flights waiting for Corona, so you only need to change the model.
