Korean Air was founded in 1969 after the South Korean government privatized Korean National Airlines. It started as a domestic carrier but quickly expanded to international routes. By the 1980s, Korean Air had grown into one of Asia’s major airlines, operating transpacific and European flights. The airline played a key role in the development of South Korea’s aviation industry and has since become one of the world’s leading global carriers.
In 2000, Korean Air became a founding member of the SkyTeam alliance, strengthening its international connectivity. The airline has continually modernized its fleet, invested in sustainability initiatives, and expanded its premium services. In 2020, Korean Air announced the acquisition of Asiana Airlines, which will further enhance its market position once fully integrated.
