Asiana Airlines recovers Barcelona - Seoul route

Barcelona – Seoul recovered route by Asiana Airlines 

The Barcelona Air Routes Development Committee (BARDC) within its Strategic Plan 2021-2024, has as its primary objective the recovery of the routes/companies that operated before the pandemic, increase the capacity in some existing destinations with high demand but little supply, as well as increase new routes to new destinations.

Asia is one of the most important intercontinental markets for Barcelona/Catalonia. The Republic of South Korea is among the CDRA’s main target countries.

The recovery of this route was vital for Barcelona/Catalonia and after the monitoring and meetings throughout the pandemic and, additionally, our institutional visit to their headquarters in Seoul where we thanked the Government of the Republic of South Korea and Asiana for their total confidence in our destination.
As of today, we will once again have a direct connection to a country with more than 51 million inhabitants and where Barcelona already has a great brand image.
