Busan is served mainly by Gimhae International Airport (PUS), which functions as the city’s primary international and domestic gateway and can be both a full-service and low-cost carrier destination. You’ll typically find carriers such as Korean Air, Asiana, Jeju Air and other budget airlines operating there. Gimhae lies about 16 km from central Busan (Seomyeon/Haeundae), with travel options including the Airport Railroad (around 30–45 minutes), airport buses (40–60 minutes) and taxis (30–50 minutes); fares can range from modest bus fares to mid-range taxi fares depending on time and traffic. Pros: convenient direct links and a compact terminal that’s often quicker to navigate than larger hubs. Cons: it can feel crowded at peak times and international route choices are more limited than Seoul airports.
Qingdao is served primarily by Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport (TAO), a modern international hub opened to replace the older Liuting Airport and typically handling a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines on domestic and international routes.
