A Asiana Airlines reiniciou os voos de Incheon para Osaka usando novos slots de aeroporto, reacendendo uma disputa com a Jeju Air, que assumiu a rota em 2024 sob condições antitruste japonesas ligadas à fusão da Asiana com a Korean Air. Asiana Airlines has restarted Incheon to Osaka flights using new airport slots, reigniting a dispute with Jeju Air, which had taken over the route in 2024 under Japanese antitrust conditions tied to Asiana’s merger with Korean Air. A Jeju Air garantiu três slots diários de ida e volta por três anos, mas a Asiana obteve novos slots sob a política de esqui aberto do Japão e retomou o serviço, levando a reclamações de que a medida prejudica a concorrência justa e ameaça a lucratividade esperada da Jeju Air. Jeju Air secured three daily round-trip slots for three years, but Asiana obtained new slots under Japan’s open-skies policy and resumed service, prompting complaints that the move undermines fair competition and threatens Jeju Air’s expected profitability. Asiana diz que cumpriu todos os requisitos regulamentares e adquiriu as slots legalmente. Asiana says it complied with all regulatory requirements and acquired the slots legally.
