Korean Air will offer complimentary hotel accommodations in Seoul for eligible passengers traveling on its new route between South Korea and Australia. The airline’s service, which launches on December 18, 2026, connects Seoul and Melbourne and is scheduled to operate three times weekly until March 14, 2027.

Passengers flying from the UK and other locations to Australia via Seoul who are unable to secure same-day connecting flights will receive a free hotel stay in Seoul. This initiative aims to provide added convenience for travelers navigating the new route.

The introduction of the Seoul–Melbourne service expands Korean Air’s international network and enhances travel options between South Korea, Australia, and other global markets. More information about the new route and booking details is available on the airline’s website.
