(MVA) — The Marianas Visitors Authority has confirmed that three charter flights from Busan to The Marianas will operate during the upcoming Chuseok holiday next month.
Busan, South Korea’s second-largest city and a major coastal hub in the southeast, is well known for its beaches and international accessibility. Operated by Jeju Air, the outbound flights from Busan are scheduled for Oct. 2, 5, and 8, while the return flights from Saipan will depart on Oct. 6, 9, and 12. The flights are expected to bring an estimated 510 additional visitors to the islands during the holiday.
In addition, passengers will be able to get the most out of their visit with the help of the updated Marianas Guidebook launched on Sept. 18 by the tourism office in Korea. The guidebook introduces major attractions and hidden gems across Saipan, Tinian, and Rota, along with recommendations for marine sports, adventure activities, culinary experiences, and more.
“We are pleased for the partnership of Jeju Air and Hana Tour in organizing these three extra flights during Chuseok, and we look forward to warmly welcoming our visitors from the Busan region,” said MVA Managing Director Jamika R. Taijeron. “At the same time, we’re excited to begin distribution of our updated Marianas Guidebook, designed to help Korean travelers plan their itineraries with ease and discover the many charms of The Marianas, whether that be our pristine natural environment, a wide range of outdoor activities, or world-class resorts.”
The Busan charter flights are an exclusive product offered through Hana Tour, designed as a package that includes flights, hotel accommodation, and guided tours.
