The United States and South Korea ended...
The United States and South Korea ended five days of aviation talks last week without agreement on pending issues, the Transportation Ministry announced.
But ministry officials, requesting anonymity, said it was “not a total failure.” They said differences were somewhat narrowed in some unspecified areas and the two sides agreed to meet later.
Officials said the American delegation, citing opposition by several U.S. airlines, refused again Korea’s request that Korean Air Lines be allowed to add Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas and Atlanta to its air routes to the United States.
KAL now flies to Honolulu, Los Angeles, New York and Anchorage.
