SEOUL, April 16 (Korea Bizwire) — Due to rerouting caused by the war in Ukraine, flight times to most European cities have increased by up to two hours, with Paris and London taking about 14 hours and 30 minutes. Even flights to relatively close cities like Frankfurt and Budapest now take 13 hours and 12 hours and 35 minutes, respectively.
This can be problematic for people with health issues, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. As a result, more people are choosing to fly to Europe via stopovers in Dubai, Turkey, or Hong Kong. However, despite the increased flight times, travel demand remains strong.
