Seoul is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Incheon International (ICN) is the city’s major international hub, handling long-haul and many full-service carriers; it’s often seen as the more premium option and can be the better choice for intercontinental connections. Located about 48 km west of central Seoul, it’s reachable by AREX express trains in roughly 43–60 minutes, airport limousine buses in about 60–90 minutes, or taxis which can take 60–90 minutes depending on traffic; fares and transfer times vary by service. Gimpo Airport (GMP) functions more as a domestic and regional gateway with frequent low-cost and legacy flights to partner cities; it sits around 15 km from downtown and is typically quicker to reach by subway (20–30 minutes) or taxi (25–40 minutes). Pros: Incheon offers extensive passenger facilities and international connectivity, while Gimpo is more convenient for short-haul travel and quicker city access. Cons: Incheon’s greater distance can add transfer time and cost, while Gimpo has more limited long-haul services.
Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is Germany’s primary international hub and a major European transfer point, handling a broad mix of full-service carriers and global alliances alongside some low-cost operators. It sits about 12 km (roughly 20–30 minutes by car) southwest of the city center; regional trains (S-Bahn S8/S9) typically take around 15 minutes to Hauptbahnhof with fares usually in the low single-digit euro range, while taxis can be 20–30 minutes and cost noticeably more. Long-haul and efficient rail connections make it strong for business and transit passengers, though the airport can feel large and busy—convenient for onward connections but occasionally less relaxed for short-city visits.
