Random inspection on airlines for their compliance with full-fare disclosure rule results in 12 air carriers from home and abroad being faced with penalty

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT, Minister WON Hee-ryong) conducted random inspections on both domestic and foreign airlines (total 71 airlines)* to check whether the provision of information on full airfare price (hereinafter referred to as ‘full-fare disclosure rule’) is complied, and decided to fine twelve(12) carriers that turned out to have violated the rule.

* Korean national carriers: 10 airlines, Foreign carriers: 61 airlines operating their own websites in Korean language and providing services for 2023 Summer Season

Taken effect from July 2014, ‘Full-fare disclosure rule’ mandates the price information to be displayed as the total amount* of fees expected to be paid by consumers as the final fare, when airfare is being compared and selected by consumers for their purchase of air tickets.

* Total amount that must include basic fare, fuel surcharge, and airport facility usage fee and others, and one-way or round-trip purchase requirement must be clearly stated
