๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทโœˆ๏ธ Kuching to Jeju Island? It could become a reality!
South Korea is now among the potential new destinations being considered for direct flights from Kuching by AirBorneo, with Jeju Island emerging as one of the key options. ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พโค๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท

According to Sarawak Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Minister Dato Sri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah, a direct Kuchingโ€“Jeju route could open up exciting new opportunities for tourism and travel between Sarawak and South Korea.

Interestingly, both Jeju Island and Kuching are linked to UNESCO Global Geopark (UGGp) recognition. Jeju has already received the status, while Kuching is expected to receive the recognition next year. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿž๏ธ

And of course, thereโ€™s another big reason why South Korea is being considered โ€” Sarawakians love travelling to Korea! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท

From K-pop ๐ŸŽถ, K-dramas ๐Ÿ“บ and Korean food ๐Ÿœ to technology, automobiles and sports, South Korea has become a hugely popular destination among Malaysians.

Besides Jeju, Bangkok ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ is also reportedly being considered as another potential destination.

With AirBorneo set to launch direct flights to Jakarta next month, the next new international route could potentially be Bangkok or Jeju Island. โœˆ๏ธ

Imagine being able to fly directly from Kuching to Jeju without having to transit elsewhereโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘€

If Kuching gets a direct flight to Jeju, would you be one of the first to book a ticket? ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ทโœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚
