Korean Air cancels flights from Pusan to Bangkok
Wondering when KAL is ordered to not fly to Thailand from Seoul/ICN ???Thailand's outbound tours have been left in limbo as South Korean airlines suspend more flights to Thailand amid coronavirus fears, a huge hit given South Korea's status as the second favourite destination for Thais, after Japan.
The decrease in flights came after the South Korean government issued a travel advisory to its citizens on Thursday.
The country's Health and Welfare Ministry urged South Koreans to refrain from travelling to regions confirmed to have infectious cases

I think it's just that Busan is not that busy of a route right now for them. They'll never stop ICN-BKK, it's the most popular route at the airport overall I just learned.

I am moving this thread to the Korean forum where it will be better addressed.

It was the longest route out of PUS (until AY comes) and it warranted an A330, daily at that. It will come back eventually. In the meantime, ICN is still there and the domestic transit flights between PUS and ICN should do the trick.
Anyone know when the route originally started ?
