Airlines see spike in int'l passenger numbers

An airplane takes off over South Korean airplanes parked on a runway at Incheon airport, west of Seoul, on April 24, 2023. The number of passengers that used international flights operated by South Korean air carriers increased sixteenfold in the first quarter from a year earlier to 9.87 million, driven by a surge in demand amid border reopenings, government data showed.
