"Let's Try an Emergency Evacuation"... Air Busan Opens Training Facility to Citizens

CPR and AED Practice, Emergency Exit Operation, and Evacuation Drills


"Four Sessions by November, Sharing Safety Training Infrastructure"

What should you do if an emergency occurs on an airplane? Citizens of Busan participated in a hands-on program simulating actual in-flight emergencies, where they practiced everything from CPR to emergency exit operation and evacuation.

Air Busan (CEO Jung Byungseop) announced on the 17th that it conducted an "Aviation Safety Experience Training" session for 21 Busan citizens at its headquarters in Gangseo-gu, Busan, on August 14.

This training program was prepared as part of an aviation safety promotion project jointly operated by Busan Metropolitan City and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency. The curriculum was designed to allow citizens to learn and experience aviation safety procedures firsthand, helping them strengthen their ability to respond to emergencies.

On the 14th, citizens participating in aviation safety training held at the Air Busan headquarters in Gangseo-gu, Busan, are experiencing the slide emergency evacuation.

Under the guidance of a professional safety training instructor, participants learned how to perform CPR and how to use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). They then took part in drills simulating real in-flight emergencies, which included directly operating emergency exits and using the emergency evacuation slide.

Since completing its new headquarters in 2017, Air Busan became the first among domestic low-cost carriers (LCCs) to establish its own internal training facility. Equipped with a mock-up cabin, emergency evacuation slide, door trainer, and first aid training room, the facility has been utilized for flight attendant safety education and training.

This training session was particularly meaningful as it opened up these specialized aviation training facilities to the public. It also served as an opportunity for flight attendant instructors to share their on-site experience and expertise in safety education with the local community.

An Air Busan spokesperson stated, "We hope this meaningful event gave citizens a deeper understanding of aviation safety and hands-on experience in critical response methods during emergencies. We will continue to share our professional education infrastructure and capabilities with the local community and strive to promote a culture of safety."

Starting with this session, Air Busan plans to hold a total of four aviation safety experience programs for citizens by November.
