[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Asiana Airlines measures the weight of passengers on international flights departing from Gimpo Airport for 10 days from the 22nd to the 31st. It is to secure data for safe operation.
According to Asiana Airlines on the 22nd, passengers using Asiana Airlines' international flights at Gimpo Airport during the period will take the measuring table at the departure gate to weigh their weight and cargo.
The measurement is carried out by holding the luggage that the passenger is carrying on the plane while wearing clothes and measuring it on the scale, so the passenger's weight is not known separately. However, if you do not want to measure, you can reject it.
Asiana Airlines plans to derive the standard passenger weight by combining the measurement data and the data measured at the international gate of Incheon International Airport from February 6 to March 31. Passenger standard weight is measured at least every five years or when necessary by airlines in accordance with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's "aircraft weight and equilibrium management standards." This is used to balance the weight of the aircraft and increase flight safety.
