Business class. It wasn't just the team that was good. Many KIA fans who saw off at the airport also benefited evenly 'Economically'.
KIA Tigers' team left for Irvine Spring Camp in California, the United States, on the 22nd and 23rd. Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Eui-sun supported the round-trip business seats of all the players as a winning gift. The entire team could not get on a business seat on one plane, so they left the country divided into two planes over two days.
The team's business class also became a good thing for fans who left the airport for two days to see off the players. Why is that?
These days, Incheon Airport is crowded with overseas travelers. 'You can arrive at the airport two hours in advance' was wrong. You have to arrive three to four hours before you can complete the procedure comfortably.

The KIA team also arrived at the airport just after 10 a.m., four and a half hours before the flight departure time. If it had been an economy class as usual, it would have taken a lot of time to check-in, but the team was able to enter the premium lounge immediately, send their luggage quickly without waiting lines, and complete the boarding process.
Even after the interview with reporters, which took two to three times longer than other clubs, there was room until boarding time. It's time for the fans.

All departing players, from head coach Lee Bum-ho, the only head coach who has been singing cheering songs in the second half of the game throughout the season, to Choi Hyung-woo, Yang Hyun-jong, Na Sung-bum, Park Chan-ho, Jung Hae-young, Lee Eui-ri and Kim Do-young, met with fans one-on-one to sign autographs and take pictures together. Dignity is first class and accessibility is economy class.
In particular, Kim Do-young, who has established herself as the most popular star, swept through the airport waiting room, driving a crowd that is not envious of idols.

KIA players in the business class posted photos of their seats on their SNS and bragged as much as they wanted. Thanks to the comfortable flight, KIA players can immediately enter the V13 tempering in their best condition.
