First up anyone done it before? Is it allowable?
Any food services at that time?
Anything else to do besides sleeping at those hours? |

The fast food chains in the main hall are open 24 hours, and some of the Korean restaurants might be as well.
I recommend staying in the jimjilbang on the bottom floor. |

I slept overnight at Incheon airport. Very possible. They have plenty of hard benches a person can stretch out all the way on. |

My personal favorite is to crash in a washroom stall.
It caters to my need for privacy. You can stash a bag in one corner and sleep on your side quite comfortably. If you aren't a side sleeper it can be difficult. Otherwise it's golden. Airport stalls are very clean comparatively speaking.
Keep your ears to the street! |

I'm pretty sure it's 20,000 for a half-day, including overnight, and that includes everything - the sauna, the sleeping area, luggage storage, etc etc. |

The nearby area of Unseo-dong, was made for airport workers and people going thru the airport. You can find decent, if slightly worn at the edges, motels in the neighborhood of W40k for one night. What did you do with the money you earned here, drink or gamble it away?!?
Surely, staying in a cheap motel or sauna is better than trying to crash in a bathroom stall or staying a a McDonald's for 24 hours. No wonder ESL teachers are looked on as the bottom of the barrel with morons like these wandering around!
Idiots like those will hopefully just get drunk and wander out in the cold and freeze to death, it's nature's way of culling total stupidity! If you're that totally oblivious to reality, you deserve what happens to your stupid ass! Good riddance! |

Epik_Teacher, I'm sure some of those previous posters were taking the p!$$. ie, VERY tongue in cheek. I usually stay at Airport City Plaza Newtown nearby Incheon airport. A bunch of motels for around 80-100k a night plus they'll bus you to the airport 2-3 hours before your flight. No extra charge. |
