Korean Air Finalizes Proposed Integration Plan with Asiana Airlines

Korean Air (KAL/KE) has finalized its proposed merger (PMI) plan with Asiana Airlines (AAR/OZ).

The finalized PMI plan includes the integration of full-service carriers (FSC) Korean Air and Asiana Airlines, and low-cost carriers (LCC) Jin Air (JNA/LJ), Air Busan (ABL/BX), and Air Seoul (ASV/RS).
