Quick question, what��s the best way to get to the airport in Incheon from Itaewon?

I've never taken that exact bus route but I would allow an hour and 30 mins to be safe.

Airport buses have gone up 1.000 won. It happened in the past three weeks from picking up my mom to dropping her off.

Anyone notice that all the buses to Seoul are 6.000 (now 7.000) while the one to Itaewon is double that price?

Really fucking bull shit

Hmmm, it's not quite how you are portraying it. Seoul station to Incheon is 12,000 as are the KAL buses from all the major hotels. It is not just the bus from Itaewon that costs that much.

Fare's fare. Wink

If you'll be staying in Kyeonggidan, there's also a shuttle from the Hyatt- takes about an hour I believe.

Gosok bus terminal 6.000. 50 minutes

Itaewon 12.000 72 minutes.

So we are paying for more time sitting on the bus?

While I wrote Itaewon, I meant tourist/foreign areas are paying more.

Down in Bundang it is 6.000 right?

I did the ride from infront of the Itaewon Hotel to Incheon in late April and I was going to say that it took an hour-fifteen to do so I'd say that the guys who are saying 72 minutes are real close.

Just go into the hotel and they sell tickets at the front desk, comes every 1/2 hour if I remember right and starts at about 6:00 am.

Do the more expensive buses have baggage space, while the bus to gosok doesn't?

I always thought it was a bit short-sighted that the bus from ICN to Bucheon didn't have any place to store baggage.

The bus I was on had the first 6 or 8 seats on the right hand side removed and that area served as storage for bags. Plus they have the compartments under the bus so there's lots of baggage space.
