South Korea - December 30, 2024 Storyline: Monday saw a spike in cancellations of travel deals and airline tickets in South Korea amid mounting concerns over aviation safety following a deadly airliner crash that claimed 179 lives the day earlier, according to industry sources. A Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 crashed during a failed landing attempt at Muan Airport in southwestern South Korea on Sunday morning, erupting in flames. Of the 181 people on board, only two crew members survived. It was the country's deadliest aviation disaster in nearly three decades. According to data from the budget carrier, 68,000 domestic and international tickets had been canceled as of 13:00 Monday, with the majority of cancellations occurring after Sunday's fatal accident. Travel agencies have also experienced a surge in cancellations as public anxiety deepens. In response, major travel agencies and platforms have waived cancellation fees for packages involving Jeju Air and rebooked customers on larger airlines using alternative airports. The disaster's impact has also reverberated through the financial market. Jeju Air's shares plummeted 15 percent during the opening hours on Monday, eventually closing with an 8.65 percent loss. Shares of other airlines and travel companies also saw significant declines. South Korea's acting President Choi Sang-mok on Monday ordered an emergency safety inspection of the country's entire airline operation system once the recovery work on the Jeju Air crash is finished.
