If I get off work at 10 pm with a cab waiting - do you think I can get from Uijeongbu to Inchon airport, through customs, lines, etc... and make a 12:20 am international flight?

If I miss it I'd be really screwed. Is this worth the risk or should I just schedule a "safer" flight?

With a requested 2 hour prior check in for an international flight it will be really tight. I wouldn't try it.

It is almost a 2 hour drive to the airport from Uijeongbu. Certainly 90 minutes anyway. Any delay at all and you will miss the flight.

Leave at 9 or reschedule the flight.

I would follow TP's advice and not risk it.

I agree with the other posters. You will be cutting it very close if you try this. I leave about 3 or even 4 hours before my flights leave from Incheon and sonetimes STILL barely get there in time. You have to consider traffic, how long the lines are at the airport, etc. Going to Incheon airport is a pain!

If you are flying business class you will be ok.
