Asiana offers better deals to mileage users
Asiana Airlines said Tuesday that it will offer more seats in September to those who seek to fly through accumulated mileage.
The airline firm plans to set aside 100 seats on domestic and international flights for members of its mileage program from Sept. 12 through 16, for only half of the normal mileage.
For instance, those who want to fly between Gimpo and Jeju usually have to spend 5,000 miles. But during the five-day period, only 2,500 miles will be required.
