South Korean tourists stranded on Guam for days due to a powerful typhoon started to return home as the international airport on the island resumed operations Monday afternoon.

A Jin Air flight carrying 188 South Korean travelers arrived at Incheon International Airport at around 8:50 p.m. on Monday, followed by additional flights by South Korean carriers Jeju Air, T'way Air and Korean Air.

The four carriers sent a total of eleven planes to Guam, which will likely bring about 25-hundred South Korean travelers home on Monday and Tuesday.

The government expects it will take about three days to bring back all of some 34-hundred stranded tourists, who have been stranded on the U.S.' territory island since the international airport was shut down last Monday due to Typhoon Mawar.
