Incheon Airport has pulled out of its earlier plans to create a separate entrance and exit gate for celebrities after criticism of preferential treatment.
On October 23rd, Incheon Airport announced that they would be creating a separate gate only for celebrities to avoid inconvenience and maintain the safety of other passengers, this decision was reached after a celebrity’s security had caused major inconveniences back in July after an overwhelmingly large crowd tried to get a glimpse of the celebrity. As a result, Incheon Airport proposed the ‘celebrity-only-gate’, which was to take effect as of October 28th.
However, the celebrity-only-gate was not well received as many individuals expressed that the move was more of a preferential treatment than a safety measure. With the weight of the matter and the overwhelming criticisms, Incheon Airport was forced to withdraw its plans.
On October 27th, Incheon International Airport Corporation made an official statement indicating that it would no longer be implementing the celebrity-only-gate plans. In the statement, the corporation highlighted that concerning the diverse opinions from the parliamentary audit amidst media coverage, they have decided to do away with special entry procedures for high-profile individuals who attract large crowds. The airport corporation also added that it would work on the crowding issue by reviewing overseas airports’ crowd-management methods.
