Last May an airplane of the Koryo Air Company with European flight hounds aboard left Pyongyang Airport for tour of Mt. Paektu. Those tourists also went sightseeing in the east coastal area in the country by another plane taking off at Samjiyon Airport. This was the first demonstration tourism by air for foreigners in the country.

Tourists can satisfy their curiosity through tour and photographing of airplanes of various types possessed by the company and use of them.

The company has various kinds of civilian airplanes. Those planes have been used for a long time, but their technical and external state is still kept fine.
