The following airlines operate regular services between Kochi and Seoul. Each airline offers different fare classes, baggage allowances, and onboard services.

Full-service international carriers typically include meals, checked baggage (20-30 kg), and in-flight entertainment. Compare the total cost including baggage on FareEagle — sometimes a full-service fare with included baggage is cheaper than a low-cost fare plus add-ons.
