Environmental Protection in Action Through the "Hands Together" Campaign

Korean Air and Asiana Airlines announced on July 10 that, ahead of the launch of the "Integrated Korean Air" scheduled for December, they have participated in educational donation and environmental cleanup activities.

On July 9, the volunteer education donation team of Korean Air and Asiana Airlines conducted a special lecture on aviation careers for approximately 140 first-year students at Hanyang University College of Education Affiliated Middle School in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. Drawing on their own experiences as current aviation professionals, the volunteer team members from both airlines introduced various careers in the aviation industry and offered advice to help students with their career planning. The students broadened their understanding of the aviation industry by listening to explanations about actual work in the field.

On June 27, a similar special lecture on aviation careers was held at Pine Tree Home, a child welfare facility in Bupyeong-gu, Incheon, for about 30 middle and high school students. On this day, a Korean Air flight crew member introduced the role and responsibilities of pilots, while an Asiana Airlines cabin crew member shared insights into the duties of cabin crew and experiences from the field of aviation service. After the lecture, a Q&A and mentoring session was held, allowing students to share their career concerns and resolve any questions they had.

A Korean Air flight crew member who participated in the special lecture said, "Seeing the students' passion reminded me of when I first dreamed of becoming a flight crew member, which made the experience deeply meaningful," and added, "It was even more significant to be able to support the dreams of children alongside Asiana Airlines and to share the experiences of both airlines."

In addition to educational donation activities, the two airlines are also working together on social contribution initiatives for environmental protection. They operate the "Hands Together" campaign, where employees from both companies gather on the last Friday of every month to practice the value of sharing and promote coexistence with the local community.

On June 26, as part of ongoing community service efforts, employees from Korean Air and Asiana Airlines participated in a "Hands Together Plogging" event along the Gaehwa Mountain trail in Gangseo-gu, Seoul. Participants walked about 1.8 kilometers, picking up litter and tidying up the surrounding environment to help create a cleaner local area.

A Korean Air representative stated, "Social contribution activities that involve employees from both companies deliver warmth to the community while also serving as a valuable opportunity to enhance unity and communication between organizations. We will continue to engage in sharing activities, based on our organizational culture of 'Journey Together.'"
