Travel information

Seoul has two main airports - Incheon international airport (ICN) and Gimpo international airport (GMP).
Most flights from outside Asia land at Incheon airport.

There is an airport railway (AREX) that connects both airports to the city center (Seoul station). You can take either the direct one (costs 11,000 KRW) or the all-stop one (costs 4,750 KRW). The bus line 201 connects Seoul station to KIAS. Alternatively, you can ride subway line 1 from Seoul station to Chengnyang-ri (청량리) station and then take bus line 201/3216.
There are airport limousines connecting each airport to several corners of Seoul. You might prefer this on your way to your hotel, especially if it is not near the city center.
