Lion Group, one of the largest low-cost carriers in Indonesia, has formed a strategic partnership with Jeju Air, a major South Korean low-cost airline. This collaboration allows passengers to conveniently explore more international destinations across the Asia-Pacific region through a multicity concept.

With flights connecting via Bali (DPS) and Batam (BTH), Indonesian travelers can now access 36 of Jeju Air’s international routes, including destinations in Japan and China, after transiting through Incheon, South Korea. Conversely, foreign tourists from South Korea and other countries can seamlessly visit Indonesian cities by leveraging the integrated flight services.

This partnership not only enhances travel options and flexibility for passengers but also supports the Indonesian government’s efforts to boost foreign tourism. By offering more flight connections, the airlines aim to attract more international visitors to explore the diverse beauty and cultural attractions across Indonesia.

Both airline leaders expressed their commitment to delivering a convenient and enjoyable travel experience through this collaboration, strengthening bilateral relations between Indonesia and South Korea, and driving tourism growth in both countries.
