大韩航空近日宣布,欧盟委员会已正式批准其与韩亚航空的合并提案。

这家韩国的旗舰航空公司表示,它已经满足了欧盟竞争管理机构为其与韩亚航空合并所设定的所有条件。



欧盟委员会(EC)在11月28日发表声明称,经过审查确认大韩航空满足了所有必要的条件后,结束了对此次合并案的审查过程。


早在2024年2月时,欧盟委员会就基于两个关键要求给予了有条件的批准:一是确保在四条重叠的欧洲航线上——巴塞罗那、法兰克福、巴黎及罗马——保持运营稳定;二是要求剥离韩亚航空旗下的货运业务。


为了解决第一个问题,大韩航空指定T'way Air作为这些特定航线上的补救承运人,并承诺提供包括飞机、机组人员以及维护服务在内的全面支持。



与此同时,仁川航空也被选定为韩亚航空货运业务的买家。这部分资产将以4700亿韩元(约合3.42亿美元)的价格售出。如果交易顺利完成,这将使规模较小的仁川航空一跃成为韩国第二大货运航空公司。


目前,大韩航空已将欧盟委员会给出的最终批准文件提交给了美国司法部,并计划于2024年12月之前完成整个并购流程。


大韩航空董事长兼首席执行官Walter Cho在今年1月份曾公开表示,公司目标是在2024年内实现对韩亚航空的成功收购。


自2021年1月以来,为了获得全球范围内的反垄断许可,大韩航空已经向包括欧盟在内的14个不同的监管机构提交了关于这次合并的通知。截至目前为止,除了一家之外的所有机构都已经同意了这项合并协议。





Korean Air announced that the European Commission has given its final approval for its proposed merger with Asiana Airlines.


The South Korean flag carrier said it has satisfied all conditions set by the European Union competition authority for its merger with Asiana Airlines.


The European Commission (EC) announced on November 28 that it had concluded its review after confirming Korean Air's fulfilment of all required conditions for the merger.



In February 2024, the EC granted conditional approval subject to two key requirements: ensuring stable operations of a remedy carrier on four overlapping European routes (Barcelona, Frankfurt, Paris and Rome) and the divestiture of Asiana's freighter business.


Korean Air has designated T'way Air as the remedy carrier for the European routes, and it has committed to providing operational support, including aircraft, flight crew, and maintenance services.


Air Incheon has also been earlier approved as the purchaser of Asiana Airlines' freighter business. The business will be sold for KRW 470 billion won (US$342 million) in a deal that will likely make Air Incheon, a relatively smaller cargo airline, South Korea's second-biggest freight carrier.



Korean Air said it has submitted the European Commission's final approval to the US Department of Justice and plans to complete the transaction by December 2024.


Korean Air chairman and chief executive Walter Cho said in January that the company aims to complete the acquisition of Asiana in 2024.


Since January 2021, Korean Air has filed merger notifications with 14 competition authorities. The carrier obtained a green light from 13 of these authorities for the merger agreement.
