Per the air communications agreement between the Governments of Mongolia and the Republic of Korea, Mongolia-Korea air services consultations took place in Seoul, South Korea on August 2-3.
The consultative meeting was chaired by Head of the Department for Civil Aviation Policy and Implementation at the Ministry of Road and Transport Development Ch.Munkhtuya, and Head of the Aviation Policy Division at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport of the Republic of Korea Yoon Jin-hwan. The sides exchanged views on measures being taken by the two countries’ governments and emergency commissions, challenges being faced in correlation with infection prevention guidelines, and restoring regular scheduled flights.
From 2022, designated airlines of the two countries (MIAT Mongolian Airlines from the side of Mongolia, Korean Air and Asiana Airlines from the side of South Korea) will begin conducting flights with a carrying capacity of 5,000 passengers between the months of June and September.
In its framework, the side of Mongolia will conduct 20 flights, while the side of South Korea will conduct 18 flights.
As for the rest of the year, the sides agreed to keep the current number of scheduled flights with a total carrying capacity of 2,500 passengers.
As flights are currently conducted to the cities of Seoul and Busan, the side of Mongolia has put forth a request to add the city of Murun in Khuvsgul aimag to the destinations in Mongolia. It was agreed to carry out a study on this matter, and hold a further discussion at the next meeting.
In connection with the new international airport being put into operation in Khushig Valley, they discussed having an operational safety inspection conducted at the airport by the South Korean ministry, and came to the decision to carry out the inspection in the near future.
The decision regarding the matter of restoring scheduled flights will be made based on the results of the operational safety inspection as well as the pandemic situation in the two countries.
