On September 11, Korean Air celebrated the inauguration of its direct service from Seoul’s Incheon International Airport (ICN) to Lisbon Airport (LIS) in Portugal, marking a significant expansion of its European network. The inaugural flight, KE921, departed from Seoul at 11:50 AM, symbolizing the beginning of a new era of connectivity between South Korea and Portugal.
The launch of this new route reflects Korean Air’s commitment to strengthening its global network and enhancing connectivity between Asia and Europe. The direct service to Lisbon not only opens up new travel opportunities for both business and leisure travelers but also positions Korean Air as a key player in linking South Korea with Portugal’s vibrant capital.
This new route will operate with a frequency that meets the growing demand for travel between the two regions.

The flight is expected to bolster tourism and business exchanges between South Korea and Portugal, fostering closer ties between the two countries.
The introduction of this service is a strategic move for Korean Air as it continues to expand its presence in Europe. With Lisbon being a popular destination for travelers exploring the Iberian Peninsula and beyond, the new route is anticipated to attract a significant number of passengers from both regions. The airline’s decision to add Lisbon to its route network underscores its focus on delivering more diverse travel options and enhancing its global footprint.
Korean Air has equipped its new Lisbon service with modern aircraft and top-notch amenities, ensuring a comfortable journey for passengers.
