North Korea's national carrier Air Koryo, which has the lowest airline rating on Skytrax, has discovered the Internet.
The state-owned company -- regarded by some as the "world's worst airline" -- recently launched a bilingual website (www.airkoryo.com.kp) to provide travelers with "easier, quicker, reliable booking and ticketing services," according to Air Koryo. Air Koryo's new ticket booking system reinforces the company's less-than-brilliant reputation.
After multiple trials to book a one-way ticket from Shengyang to Pyongyang, we failed to secure any reservation. Instead, we ended up with this message day after day: We cannot find any flights for your flight schedule. Please change your schedule and try again.

It is interesting that the DPRK national airline, Air Koryo, has surpassed Russia’s Aeroflot as the worst airline with the worst flight booking and worst air safety record. I’ll bet the Russians are secretly smiling.

In 2012, the carrier also launched its new travel package via Juche Travel Services, "aviation enthusiast" tours which offered the chance to fly on every variety of Air Koryo aircraft within North Korea on board the Il-76, Mil-17, An-24, Tu-134 and Tu-154. The international services were operated by inbound and outbound Tu-204 or Il-62. Even Mike Rowe wouldn't risk his life on this tour ...
