My fiancee's cousin and uncle are visiting us at the end of this month. We live in Jeongja and plan on taking a bus/subway combo to Incheon to pick them up. What is the best method to get back to Jeongja? I have heard about taxi drivers screwing people over, especially to Bundang, so I am a bit weary. Any suggestions?

There is an airport limousine that will save you all sorts of headache. As far as I know, it picks up right in Jeongja. I took it to the airport from Migeum plenty of times. They pick up every half hour. I usually allot about 2 hours travel time each way in case of traffic, but the trip usually takes no more than an hour and a half.

Here you go:

For some reason Jeongja is listed as "Jeongia", so a search for it doesn't work so well. Search for Migeum and you'll find the right bus. Click on "detail." Voila!

Purple airport limousine bus, door 8 - arrivals level. Ticket booth just outside the door.

60 minute travel time, departures every 20 minutes, business class seats, lots of luggage space underneath and 12,000 won per seat.

It doesn't get much easier or much more comfortable.

Sweet, thanks for the information. There is something comforting when ttompatz answers one of your questions. Thanks again!
