SEOUL, May 28 (Reuters) - A South Korean court issued an arrest warrant on Sunday for a passenger who opened an Asiana Airlines (020560.KS) plane door minutes before it landed in Daegu, South Korea, Yonhap News Agency reported. The Daegu District Court issued the warrant for him on charges of violating the Aviation Security Act, saying there was a risk he may try to flee before trial. Lee said he opened the door because he wanted to get off the plane quickly. "I feel really sorry for the kids," he told reporters as he was escorted to the Daegu court for a hearing on Sunday, apparently referring to students who were on board and taken to hospital with breathing issues. Asiana stopped sales of the seats closest to the exit on the A321-200 airbus model starting on Sunday, Yonhap said.

SEOUL, May 27 (Reuters) - A passenger on an Asiana Airlines (020560.KS) flight told police he opened a door on the plane minutes before it landed in Daegu, South Korea, on Friday because he was "uncomfortable", Yonhap News Agency reported. He told police that he opened the door because he "wanted to get off the plane quickly," Yonhap said on Saturday, citing the Daegu Dongbu Police Station. The man opened the door when the plane was about 700 feet (213 metres) above the ground, causing panic onboard.

Police sought an arrest warrant for the detained man on Saturday for violation of the Aviation Security Act and other offences, Yonhap said.
