Asiana Airlines, Korea's second-biggest carrier, said Tuesday it will resume flights from Incheon to Paris in June to meet pent-up demand amid eased COVID-19 curbs.

Asiana plans to offer two flights a week to Paris from June 22 and gradually increase the number depending on demand, a company spokesman said.

The carrier said Monday it will provide two flights a week on the Incheon-Rome route from June 18.

The carrier suspended most of its international routes two years and three months ago as countries strengthened entry restrictions to stem the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

It plans to expand flights on the routes to Europe and the United States from next month if the pandemic slows down further. (Yonhap)
