To celebrate this milestone, Korean Air awarded a complimentary round-trip economy class ticket between San Francisco and Seoul Incheon to the 30th passenger checking in for Seoul Incheon-bound flight KE024.

As part of the celebrations, Korean Air will host a special dinner event in downtown San Francisco on October 30. Approximately 80 guests, including representatives from Korean Air, the Korean Consulate, industry partners, key travel agencies, and media, are expected to attend.
Korean Air first launched its San Francisco service on October 29, 1994, establishing a regular passenger route from Gimpo Airport to San Francisco International Airport. Since its inception, the airline has maintained a schedule of at least seven flights per week, significantly enhancing connections and economic exchange between Korea and the U.S. West Coast, particularly in the IT and semiconductor sectors by improving access to Silicon Valley.
In 2023, around 176,000 passengers traveled on the San Francisco route, making it Korean Air’s second most popular route on the U.S. West Coast, following Los Angeles. Korean Air operates widebody aircraft, such as the Boeing 777, to ensure passengers enjoy exceptional comfort on this important route.
