How to get from Incheon International Airport to downtown Seoul?

I have listed three ways to get from Incheon International Airport to Hongik University. 

The easiest way is, of course, to take a taxi. The second and third methods are to take public transportation, which are the bus and subway respectively.

We, Koreans, sometimes compare it to taking public transportation and jokingly say that we ride a “BMW”. Bus, Metro and Walk.

Since the distance from Incheon Airport to Seoul is over 50 km, let’s not mention walking.

• Taxi (incheon airport to downtown seoul)

  

  The easiest way is by taxi. You can make a reservation or board directly from Incheon International Airport. The advantage, as everyone knows, is that you can go comfortably and privately. The downside is that the fee is expensive.
  Price : 50,000 won~
  Time required : 45 minutes~ 

• Bus(6002 bus)

  

  It located on underground T2, number 30. But, you can purchase the ticket everywhere in Airport… (T1, GATE 4, 21, GATE 9, 48.
  T1 GATE 4,6,7,8,11,13 ) : 06:00~22:00 only possible to purchase.
  Price : 17,000 won(Adult), 12,000 won(child)
  Time required : 45 minutes~
  You can see detailed nformation in here airportlimousine.co.kr
  The sum of the width, length and height must be 160 cm, and each person can bring 2 of them.
  It is difficult to use the bus if you have a lot of luggage. Still, 

• Metro
  In order to use public transportation in Korea, you basically need a “transportation card” or a Korean “credit card”. Since there is a high probability that foreigners do not have both,
• if you come to Korea for the first time, you must purchase a “disposable transportation card” with “cash”. There is always one at the entrance of the subway station. The explanations are also in English, so don’t worry.
  Price : 4,050 won(Adult), 
  Time required : 1 hour~

  

 

If you are traveling as a family or have a lot of luggage, we recommend taking a taxi.

However, there are cases where they ask for excessive fees, so if the cost exceeds 60,000 won, raise an issue. If you are a solo traveler and don’t have much luggage, we recommend the most comfortable subway. If you want to go while looking at the scenery, the bus is also good.

I hope you choose to your liking, and welcome to Korea.
