Abu Dhabi International (AUH) is the emirate’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for Etihad Airways alongside a mix of global carriers, so fares can range from competitive to premium depending on season and airline. The airport sits about 30–40 km east of the city center; taxis typically take 30–45 minutes and can cost roughly AED 70–120, while express bus services take around 45–60 minutes for a lower fare. A smaller, domestic-focused airport (Al Bateen) formerly handled some regional flights but now sees limited scheduled traffic. Pros of AUH include modern terminals and extensive connections; cons can be longer transfer times into the city and higher peak-period prices.
Seoul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Incheon International (ICN) functions as the primary international hub for long-haul and premium carriers, handling a wide range of full-service airlines and connecting flights; it sits roughly 48 km west of downtown Incheon/Seoul and can take about 45–70 minutes by AREX express or bus depending on traffic, with fares typically ranging from moderate to higher for faster services. Gimpo Airport (GMP) plays a more domestic- and low-cost-oriented role, catering to short-haul flights and some regional international routes; it’s much closer—about 15 km from central Seoul—and is reachable in about 20–30 minutes by subway or 20–40 minutes by taxi with generally lower fares. Pros: Incheon is modern and comfortable with extensive transfer facilities and duty-free shopping; Gimpo is convenient for quick access to the city and budget connections. Cons: Incheon’s distance can add transit time for city arrivals, while Gimpo has fewer amenities and fewer long-haul options.
