Air Premia said on the 7th that it will run a special discount promotion for Chuseok. The aim is to ease consumers' burdens from higher fuel surcharges.
According to Air Premia, the promotion runs from 10 a.m. today through the 20th across all nine routes. On certain dates, tickets can be up to 76% cheaper than regular fares, and Air Premia said it arranged the sale so customers planning trips from fall through the first half of next year, including the Chuseok holiday period, can buy tickets at more reasonable prices.
