Korean Air is transitioning its economy check-in procedures to self-service options at South Korean airports, including the two Seoul hubs.
The carrier intends to convert all its economy class check-in counters at domestic airports to bag drop counters for passengers that check in using mobile, web or airport kiosk options. This is expected to reduce check-in time by at least 30%, Korean said. The changes will occur by Sept. 1.
The airline intends to introduce a self-baggage tagging system by the end of 2019. This will allow passengers to check bags and print tags from airport kiosks, then leave their bags at the bag drop counter. This is expected to reduce check-in time by at least 30%
