Abstract: Scheduled commercial air service between capital cities in South and North Korea will greatly facilitate exchanges between people and transactions involving materials, and subsequently promote the opening of North Korean society by increasing the connectivity of Pyongyang to the outside world. This paper reviews the circumstances, identifies the problems, and suggests a solution to the problems with respect to starting regular flight service between South and North Korea. The study argues that the government of South Korea may need to compensate airlines for the financial feasibility of commercial flight operations between South and North Korea.
