It also has a noise footprint three times lower than the jets.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre Clercin, ATR\u2019s Head of Commercial for Asia Pacific says:\u00a0<em>\u201cWe are thrilled to see the Gyeongsangbuk-do provincial government promoting domestic regional aviation by hosting the GADLEX aviation show. Korea has many under-utilised domestic airports, and scheduled domestic flights are mainly north-south.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cATR sees opportunity to develop east-west routes, linking communities living along the east coast to places in Korea\u2019s western part, and the ATR is the ideal platform to create these links, in terms of considering the passenger volume, the geography and the distance. Besides, our 78-seat ATR 72 aircraft can take-off and land from a 1,200m runway in dry and wet conditions as per Korean rules, such as the one being developed on Ulleungdo Island.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cOur aircraft can therefore contribute to offer more responsible, affordable and convenient travel options, remaining profitable while serving the smallest communities, which also makes it an inclusive &amp; resilient proposition.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ulsan-based Hi Air is currently the only passenger operator of the ATR 72 but this is the older 72-500 model.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Clercin added:\u00a0<em>\u201cWe have seen operators try and fail to operate regional jets on domestic routes, and particularly on short distances, because these jets have higher operating costs, due mainly to higher fuel burn and maintenance costs,<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThere are instances where regional jets operators have later replaced their aircraft with ATR 72s, because our aircraft have unbeatable economics on routes less than 300NM due to the 45% lower fuel burn. Fuel accounts for 40% of an airline\u2019s total cost base, so reducing fuel burn has a hugely positive impact on the airline\u2019s profitability. This contributes to making airlines more resilient in an ever more volatile market environment\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ukaviation.news\/atr-sets-sights-on-south-korean-market-for-its-atr72-600\">https:\/\/ukaviation.news\/atr-sets-sights-on-south-korean-market-for-its-atr72-600<\/a>\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aviation news international &#8211; French regional turboprop manufacturer ATR is targeting South Korea\u2019s domestic and short-haul market with its ATR72-600 with plans to have a 25-30 strong fleet in the region by 2030.
