Cheap Flights from Mexico City to Seoul Starting at $497

Mexico City is served primarily by Benito Juárez International (MEX), the country's main international gateway and a busy hub for full-service carriers like Aeroméxico alongside many international airlines; Felipe Ángeles International (NLU) opened more recently to relieve congestion and tends to host more low-cost and domestic services. Juárez sits about 8–10 km east of downtown (roughly 20–40 minutes by car depending on traffic) with metro, buses, taxis and rideshares; fares for public transit are typically low while airport taxis or app-based rides can cost more. Felipe Ángeles is farther north, usually 40–70 minutes from the center with shuttle buses and longer taxi rides. Pros: Juárez is very well connected and convenient for international transfers; NLU can offer lower fares and less crowding. Cons: Juárez can be busy and affected by peak-hour traffic; NLU adds extra travel time for central arrivals.

Incheon International Airport (ICN) serves as Seoul’s primary international gateway and is typically positioned as a major long-haul and hub airport, handling full-service carriers as well as several low-cost airlines on international routes. Located about 48–60 km west of downtown Seoul, transfer times to the city center can be roughly 45–70 minutes by Airport Railroad Express (AREX) or 60–90 minutes by bus, with fares usually varying by service type. Taxis and private transfers are available but can be costly compared with public transit. Pros: extensive amenities, smooth international connections and plentiful flight options; cons: longer transfer distance and occasional congestion at peak times. Gimpo International Airport (GMP) typically functions as a secondary, more domestic-focused airport that also handles short-haul international flights to nearby countries. It lies closer to central Seoul—about 15–20 km west—so travel to downtown generally takes 20–40 minutes by subway or 30–50 minutes by bus, with fares usually modest and comparable to other urban transit. Many low-cost carriers and domestic routes concentrate here alongside select full-service flights. Pros: quicker city access and convenient domestic connections; cons: fewer long-haul options and more limited international facilities compared with the larger hub.
