“航班多，时间选择很灵活。特别是中国对韩国免签后，周末来青岛度假或参加商会活动更加方便了。”韩国旅客李先生在现场说道。

便捷的出行体验背后，是青岛机场对韩国市场的持续深耕。2026年1月至5月，青岛机场韩国籍入境旅客达18.7万人次，同比增长35.5%；其中免签入境16.6万人次。目前，青岛机场对韩运力稳居全国第二位，航班通达首尔、釜山、大邱等韩国核心城市。其中，“首尔快线”以日均32架次的高频次实现“公交化”运营，多航司密集执飞，早中晚时段全覆盖，单程仅需1.5小时左右。此外，青岛机场还为符合条件的韩国旅客提供免费中转住宿、免费畅玩青岛电视塔等福利。叠加中韩互免签证政策利好，青岛已成为中韩商务往来与周末微度假的首选城市。

未来，青岛机场将持续加密对韩航线网络、优化国际服务举措，深化与城市文旅、消费场景的互动合作，以航空纽带赋能中韩经贸文化交流，助力青岛市更高水平对外开放。
