Asiana Airlines is one of South Korea's two major carriers, founded in 1988 and headquartered in Seoul, operating as a full-service legacy airline with both passenger and cargo services. The airline serves as a key player in Asia-Pacific aviation, with its main hub at Incheon International Airport in Seoul, operating extensive networks across Asia, Europe, North America, and the Middle East. As a member of the Star Alliance since 2003, Asiana offers multiple cabin classes including first, business, premium economy, and economy on its international routes, while maintaining a robust domestic network throughout South Korea. The airline's frequent flyer program, Asiana Club, provides loyalty benefits across its network and partner airlines. In 2023, Asiana Airlines merged with Korean Air, creating a combined entity that strengthens South Korea's international aviation presence, though both brands continue operating under their respective identities during a transition period. The carrier is known for strong service standards and plays a vital role in connecting South Korea to major global markets.
