Gimhae Airport - Serves the Korean city of Busan. This airport began its history at the end of the 50s of the last century. At the time, it was used as a military airfield for the Korean Air Force. In 1976, the airport was given a new, current name.
The airport in Busan is located in the western part of the city of the same name and serves domestic and international flights. The airfield has 2 runways, the length of which is 2745 and 3200 meters. It should be said that the shorter bandwidth is used only by the Korean Air Force, but recently it has been increasingly discussed about transferring it to civil aviation. This is due to the fact that the passenger traffic increases annually; in 2013 alone, more than 9.6 million passengers were served.
The largest number of flights is served by Air Busan, and the airport also cooperates with such airlines as Air China, Vladivostok Avia, Lufthansa, etc. More than 77 thousand take-offs and landings are served here annually.
