 |
|
Hey guys,
I`m wondering the best route to get to Incheon airport, particularily in the morning. I live in the Gangnam area and I know there are two bus stations near me ... the Express Bus Terminal, as well as Nambu. Do buses run out of either terminal to the airport? At what times? Is there a website in English which publishes bus departure times? How much does it cost? Do you need to pre-book a seat? What about taking the subway to Incheon? The latter doesn`t seem like such a popular option, from what I`ve gathered. If you`ve got any info on how to get to Incheon Airport, it`d be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |

Grab an airport bus. They are about 12k won and leave from most major hotels. They run on about a 20 minute departure schedule and take 60-90 minutes (depending on traffic).
Scroll down to Seoul South to see where the stops are:

Click the one you want and a pop up window will appear with specifics. |

can someone who has taken the bus from seoul (city hall area) to incheon airport in the late afternoon, estimate the time it will take to get there?
i can only take a half day at work, so i'll be departing around 3 pm. i haven't experienced seoul traffic much, but i've heard the horror stories of bumper-to-bumper messes. |

Typically 90 minutes but occasionally you get lucky and it is a bit faster. |

| The 609 airport bus goes thru Gangnam and stops at Express bus station and then goes to Incheon with NO stops. The stop is across the road from exit 8 of the station. It's about 8,ooo won and goes every 15 minutes. Perfect!!! |

if you're flying asiana or KAL, you can check in at the sky terminal at coex. all immigration stuff is taken care of before you get on the limosine bus- the bus drops you off in the waiting area.
who's the genious who thought of this? |
