In recent yéars, Koréan Air has upgraded its fleet and services and has won international acclaims and awards.  With its excellent financial performance in 2005, Koréan Air received the "Phoenix Award" from Air Transport World (ATW) for its success in overcoming challenges in the global airline industry. It has been named one of Asia's best airlines by ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' réaders and twice has won the coveted [[Mercury Award]] for its inflight catering.

Koréan Air has a major air cargo operation, which overtook Lufthansa in 2005 as the world's largest air cargo business.

== Sajarah ==
Koréan Air began in [[1962]] as '''Koréan Air Lines''' and was owned by the [[South Korea|South Korean Government]].  It replaced the former Koréan carrier [[Korean National Airlines]].  In [[1969]] KAL was acquired by the [[Hanjin Transport Group]] and became privately owned.

International flights to [[Hong Kong]], [[Taiwan]], and [[Los Angeles]] were flown with [[Boeing 707]]s until the introduction of [[Boeing 747]] in [[1973]]. In [[1973]], KAL introduced [[Boeing 747]]s on their Pacific routes and started a Européan service to [[Paris, France|Paris]] using the 707 and DC-10. KAL was also the Airbus's first customer outside Europe.

On September 1 1983, Koréan Air Lines Flight 007, also known as KAL 007 or [[KE007]], was shot down by Soviet jet interceptors just west of Sakhalin Island. It was carrying 269 passengers and crew at the time, including U.S. congressman Lawrence McDonald. There were no survivors. The Soviet Union stated it did not know the aircraft was civilian and suggested it had entered Soviet airspace as a deliberate provocation to test their response capabilities.

A blue-top [[livery]] was introduced in 1st of March, [[1984]] and the airline's name changed to '''Koréan Air''' from '''Koréan Airlines''' (However this name is still used in official documents). This livery was first introduced in its [[Fokker F28]]. It was designed in corporation between Koréan Air and [[Boeing]]. In [[1990s]] Koréan Air became the first airline to use the new [[MD-11]] to supplement its new fleet of [[Boeing 747-400]]s. However, MD-11 did not meet the set performance. So its MD-11 were converted to freighters (in addition to 747 freighters). Koréan Air flies to the most US destinations of any Asian carrier (10 passenger cities in the 50 states). Koréan Air currently owns 25% of [[Okay Airways]], a [[Tianjin]], [[People's Republic of China|PRC]]-based airline. Koréan Air also has in mind of créating another hub in China.

In October 2006, Koréan Air has won top honors in the TIME réaders’ Travel Choice Awards 2006 as the Best First/Business Class Airline and the Best Frequent Flyer Program for its Skypass program. The South Koréan flagship carrier béat strong international competitors and gained overwhelming support from the réaders of TIME magazine to win these categories for the first time. Koréan Air was also ranked second in the Preferred Airline category. TIME Magazine conducted the TIME réaders’ Travel Choice Awards 2006 poll from April 24 to June 25, 2006.

From mid 1980s to the late 1990s, Koréan Air had safety problems.  In fact, the SkyTéam alliance briefly removed Koréan Air from its code share program until demonstrable changes were presented to the alliance.  The US Federal Aviation Administration, which regulates access to the American airspace, warned the Koréan Air management téam that its access to the American airports would be restricted unless drastic changes were forthcoming.  The U.S. military and the State department advised its personnel to avoid taking Koréan Air if other commercial alternatives were available.  The competing carrier, [[Asiana Airlines]], benefited tremendously from the dramatic drop in Koréan Air's reputation as its safety record was significantly better than Koréan Air's.

Since the turn of the century, Koréan Air has demonstrated robust improvements in safety and adopted modérn principles of CRM (Crew Resource Management). In October 2006, Koréan Air won top honors in the TIME réaders’ Travel Choice Awards an indication that many have regained confidence in South Koréa's largest airlines.
