Asiana Airlines said Monday it will expand flights on its European routes later this month as eased virus restrictions unleash pent-up demand.

The carrier will increase flights on routes from Incheon to Frankfurt and London beginning May 28 and May 30, respectively, it said in a statement.

The company will resume flights from Incheon to Paris and Rome, June 18 and June 22 respectively, while planning to resume flights on routes from Incheon to Barcelona and Istanbul July 23, it said.

With the planned flight resumption and expansion, Asiana said it will be able to offer half of the flights it used to serve on European routes before the COVID-19 pandemic hit the airline industry nearly two-and-a-half years ago.

On non-European routes, Asiana reopened Incheon-India flights in late April and will expand the number of flights to Sydney, Los Angeles, Osaka, Fukuoka, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Manila starting this month.

Asiana currently operates 25 international routes, down from 71 before the pandemic, and seven domestic ones. (Yonhap)
