Air Premia , founded in 2017, is a South Korean hybrid service carrier focusing on long-haul routes from Seoul (ICN) to the US (LAX (11/w), SFO (5/w), HNL (4/w), EWR (7/w)) as well as serving intra-Asia routes between ICN and BKK (5/w), DAD (4/w), HKG (4/w) and NRT (6/w).

Based on the fleet solely consisting of B787-9 aircraft, it now operates eight Dreamliners with one more B787-9 is to be added by the end of 2025. Once this aircraft is delivered, we plan to increase the frequencies of the existing US routes and further explore the additional US destination.

Air Premia is serving two classes onboard with Economy and Premium Economy seats, unheard of in South Korea, boasting its world's widest seat pitch, 42 inches for Premium Economy and 35 inches for Economy class. 

While offering affordable prices, it still provides quality services onboard such as generous free baggage allowances, fresh free meal, in-flight entertainment, and in-flight Wi-Fi.
