The airline now operates a twice-daily round-trip service between Seoul Incheon and Kobe.
The morning service (KE731) departs from Seoul Incheon at 8:25 am, arriving at Kobe at 10:00 am. The return flight (KE732) departs from Kobe at 11:00 am, arriving back at Seoul Incheon at 1:00 pm.

The new Kobe service strengthens the airline's presence in the Kansai region and offers travelers increased flexibility and accessibility when visiting Japan.
