[KOREA] Korean Air and Asiana Airlines plan to jointly establish a travel Web site, airline officials said last week.
Officials of KAL and Asiana exchanged a Letter of Intent (LOI) to create the tentatively dubbed "Airline Portal," where users can access comprehensive flight and travel information, including hotel and rental car services, and make online purchases of related products. The site will be similar to the Orbitz site in the U.S.
