The Genesis of Asiana Airlines: A Brief Overview
Founded on February 17, 1988, Asiana Airlines emerged as South Korea's second major carrier, aiming to provide exceptional services and connectivity to travelers worldwide. The airline's maiden flight took place on December 24, 1988, with a
flight from Seoul to Busan. This inaugural flight marked the commencement of an incredible odyssey that would shape the airline's identity.

Asiana Airlines and Korean Air
The merger between Asiana Airlines and Korean Air was officially announced by the Republic of Korea's government in November 2020. Korean Air acquired a 30.77% stake in Asiana from Korea Development Bank. While operating as separate
brands, the integration process began. However, the merger faced delays in receiving antitrust approvals from various foreign authorities, including China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, the United States, and Vietnam. The delay led to Korean Air operating Asiana Airlines as a subsidiary until 2024 when full integration is expected. Approval from some nations, including Turkey, Malaysia, and China, has been granted, but the U.S. Department of Justice blocked the deal in May 2023 due to monopoly concerns.
With a legacy built on a foundation of excellence, Asiana Airlines remains dedicated to shaping the future of aviation, enriching the travel experiences of passengers, and contributing positively to the global aviation community.
In a world where the sky is the limit, Asiana Airlines continues to soar, carrying the aspirations of travelers and the promise of a connected world.
Just as Asiana Airlines has evolved and adapted over the years, the spirit of the HL7594 lives on through its Aviationtag incarnation. This limited edition serves as a tribute to the aircraft's remarkable journey and Asiana's enduring commitment to quality and innovation.

Congratulations, Seongjin! You are the winner of our little raffle. Please contact fans @ aviationtag . com to claim your prize.
Shame that the very recognisable colours will probably soon be lost.
Oh my God. Hope there will be more bicolor from HL7594. Blue and yellow is a good bicolor. Plz don't waste it. 🙏
Anyway, hope that Asiana airlines can improve their financial difficulties after covid. It is sad that their latest A321neo doesn't have IFE system. China airlines and Cathay pacific a321neo have their own IFE system, even it is a small aircraft. Hope Asiana Airlines can get well soon.
Well that release was a surprise! I haven't flown with Asiana yet and I don't think I will get the chance to do so before the brand is going to stop operations….
