New flights direct from Seoul to the Gold Coast will pump more than $176 million into the economy and create close to 2000 jobs over the next three years.
Assistant Tourism Industry Development Minister Meaghan Scanlon says the new flights were secured through the Palaszczuk Government’s Attracting Aviation Investment Fund.
Ms Scanlon says the new Jetstar route – in partnership with Jeju Air – would operate three times a week from December.
