Round-trip flights to Jeju and one-way tickets to Tokyo will go on sale for 1,100 won, while domestic and international hotel rooms will be available for as low as 19,000 won ($14) during an upcoming promotional event. Package deals bundling short-haul flights with hotels will also be offered in the 300,000-won range, along with buy-one-get-one theme park tickets.

Online travel platform Trip.com announced Monday that it will hold its "11.11 Mega Sale" for four days from Wednesday through Saturday.

The event runs on a daily theme: Big Day on Wednesday, Flight Day on Thursday, Hotel Day on Friday and Encore Day on Saturday. Each morning at 9 a.m., coupons offering up to 80 percent off international flights and hotels — with discounts of up to 110,000 won — will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

On the opening day, Wednesday, at 11 a.m., Seoul–Jeju round-trip and Seoul–Tokyo one-way tickets will each go on sale for 1,100 won. One-way tickets to Osaka, Fukuoka, Nha Trang, Hong Kong and Taipei will then be released at 11,000 won each, followed by a Seoul–Vancouver one-way fare at 199,000 won.

Domestic and international hotels will also be offered at a special rate of 19,000 won. Participating properties in Korea include Shilla Stay and Inspire Resort, while overseas options feature Villa Fontaine hotels in Tokyo and Osaka and major hotels in Shanghai and Qingdao.

Bundle packages will also be available. A live broadcast at 8 p.m. Wednesday will offer two-person round-trip flight and three-day, two-night hotel packages for Osaka, Fukuoka and Qingdao, each priced at 390,000 won ($287).

Theme park deals are structured as buy-one-get-one or half-price offers. Universal Studios Japan will hold a daily buy-one-get-one promotion at 3 p.m., alongside buy-one-get-one deals at Universal Beijing Resort and 50 percent discounts at Shanghai Disneyland and Hong Kong Disneyland. Lotte World and Everland admission tickets in Korea will also come with buy-one-get-one benefits. Global data SIM cards, including eSIMs, will be sold for 1,000 won.

Flash deals are available in limited quantities and may sell out early. Schedules, discount terms, and cancellation and refund policies vary by product, so customers are advised to check the details in advance.
