The Dreamliner is fitted with Korean Air's latest Prestige Suite 2.0 cabin interiors and is set to enter service on Tuesday, flying from Seoul Incheon International (ICN) to Tokyo Narita Airport (NRT). The modern design features an enlarged logo and symbol for greater visual impact while still maintaining the design's visual balance.

The airline charts a fresh course to transform itself from a Korean flag-carrier “to an international carrier based in Korea.”
