대만 관광객 120명, 착륙 없이 제주도 여행한다…

As people can't travel freely during the COVID-19 pandemic,... the Korea Tourism Organization has launched an eye-catching travel package to the South Korean resort island of Jeju.
Tiger Air flew 120 passengers on Saturday from Taiwan to South Korea,... circled above Jeju Island, then returned to Taipei.
When this travel package was introduced, it sold out in just four minutes.
Cabin crews were wearing Korean traditional dress Hanbok and hosted various cultural programs like teaching Korean.
In the meantime, many countries are introducing 'flights to nowhere' programs to cushion the economic damage from the pandemic.
