SEOUL, November 12 (AJP) - Korean Air will offer a new daily flight between Incheon and Newark, New Jersey, starting in May next year, the country's flagship carrier said on Thursday.

The new route, operated by a Boeing 777-300ER, is slated to launch on May 22, with seven flights per week.

Located in the New York metropolitan area, Newark Liberty International Airport is a convenient gateway to both New York and New Jersey. It also provides an alternative to John F. Kennedy International Airport for travelers heading to Manhattan and the wider New York metropolitan area.

Korean Air said the new route aims to meet growing demand for business and leisure travel along the U.S. East Coast while giving passengers more options for traveling to the New York area.
