[THE INVESTOR] Jin Air, the budget carrier unit of Korean Air, said on July 24 that it added a B737-800 jet to meet demand during the peak summer season.

With the addition, Jin Air’s fleet is now composed of 20 B737-800s and four long-range B777-200ERs, the company said in a statement.

The latest 189-seat plane has been deployed on the Gimpo-Jeju Island route. It is also scheduled to serve on routes to Bangkok, Thailand, Sapporo, Japan and Malaysia’s resort of Kota Kinabalu, it said.

To differentiate it from five other low-cost carriers, Jin Air will continue to operate the wide-body 393-seat B737-200ERs on mid- and long-haul routes such as Hawaii and Australia, the statement said.
