Jin Air Co., Ltd. (Korean: 진에어; RR: Jin E-eo) is a South Korean low-cost airline. As of April 2018 it operates flights to six domestic cities and 26 international destinations.[2][3] It launched its first long haul route, between Incheon and Honolulu, in December 2015. It has operated cargo services since November 2013.[4] Jin Air is the first widebody LCC operator in Korea.[5]
In 2018, Jin Air was South Korea's second-largest low-cost carrier, carried 3.5 million domestic and 5.4 million international passengers, and accounted for an 11% share of the domestic market and a 6% share of the international market. Jin Air's domestic traffic was also lower over the preceding three years because it has focused on the international market.[5]
