Jeju Air Opens a “Kyushu-Only” Sale
Korean low-cost carrier Jeju Air is running a “Kyushu-only” sale on Japan–Korea routes departing from Kyushu, with bookings open from August 19 to August 25. One-way fares start at a total of 13,730 yen, and that figure already includes fuel surcharges, airport fees and other taxes. For an LCC, where add-on costs are often hard to predict, having the advertised price sit so close to the final total makes budgeting refreshingly simple.
The travel period covers departures from August through November, spanning late summer, the autumn foliage season and the start of winter — flexible enough for long-weekend getaways or quick midweek trips.
Routes and Lowest One-Way Fares
The one-way all-in fares announced for this sale are as follows:
- Seoul/Incheon ⇔ Kagoshima: 13,730 yen (lowest fare in the sale)
- Seoul/Incheon ⇔ Oita: 14,530 yen
- Seoul/Incheon ⇔ Fukuoka: 14,630 yen
- Busan ⇔ Fukuoka: 14,630 yen
Kagoshima takes the lowest price at 13,730 yen. All three of Kyushu’s main gateways are covered, and Fukuoka offers both a Seoul/Incheon and a Busan option, giving travellers more choice of destination and schedule. The short Fukuoka–Busan hop is especially well suited to a weekend trip.
Mind the Fare Type Differences
The fare type applied depends on your departure airport, so check this carefully before booking.
Departures from Oita and Kagoshima
These use the STANDARD fare, which includes 15 kg of checked baggage. If you plan to check a suitcase, the included allowance makes the overall value notably strong.
Departures from Fukuoka
These use the more restrictive BASIC fare, which as a rule does not include checked baggage — you’ll pay extra to check a bag. That’s fine if you travel carry-on only, but if you intend to stock up on Korean cosmetics or food, compare the total including baggage fees against other airlines.
App-Only Promo Code “KYUSHUTOKR”
Jeju Air is also offering an app-exclusive promo code, “KYUSHUTOKR”, which takes up to 20% off STANDARD fares. It cannot be applied to website bookings, so downloading the official app is essential.
The code is valid for travel from August 19 to November 30. Because the discount applies to the baggage-inclusive STANDARD fare, the final price may end up cheaper than a BASIC fare once baggage fees are added — it’s worth pricing both options before you book.
Oita Round-Trip Giveaway
Travellers who book a round-trip ticket to or from Oita are automatically entered into a prize draw, with five winners receiving an Olive Young gift card worth 20,000 won. Olive Young is one of Korea’s largest health and beauty retail chains, useful for cosmetics and everyday shopping. The number of winners is small, but it’s a welcome bonus for anyone considering Oita.
