Air Premia and Jeju Air launch interline partnership covering connections to the US and Asia

Air Premia and Jeju Air have launched a new interline partnership to expand their international networks and enhance travel options between the US and Asia.

The two airlines recently finalized the interline agreement and started joint itinerary sales, with the official start on August 1. Single-ticket itineraries can be booked with flights connecting Air Premia’s US destinations and Jeju Air’s network including Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Honolulu, and Washington DC via Incheon.

In return, the partnership opens up access to connections on Jeju Air’s international and domestic network, including domestic services to Busan and Jeju, and international services to Japan, Taiwan, China, Mongolia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Laos, and Indonesia.

Baggage policies will depend on the route type. Checked baggage will be automatically transferred to the final destination between international flights. Domestic connections will require the passenger to re-check their bags. Air Premia’s complementary checked baggage allowance applies consistently across both outbound and return journeys on US routes.

"Our partnership with Jeju Air combines its robust domestic and regional network with Air Premia's long-haul U.S. services, creating a markedly more convenient travel experience for our customers," said Yoo Myung-sub, CEO of Air Premia. "We will continue to expand our strategic global airline alliances to enhance connectivity and provide travelers with greater flexibility."

Jeju Air adds to Air Premia’s partnerships with other airlines. The airline has an interline partnership with US-based Southwest Airlines covering connections within the US. Other airlines with interline agreements with Air Premia include Korean Air, THAI Airways, and T’way Air.
