Seoul is served primarily by two airports with different roles. Incheon International Airport (ICN) is the main international hub, handling most long-haul and many regional flights and typically used by full-service carriers; it’s often perceived as mid-to-premium in price. Located about 48 km west of downtown Seoul, it’s reachable by airport express train (approx. 45–60 minutes), regular AREX trains (about 60 minutes), airport buses (60–90 minutes), or taxis (60–90 minutes, fares vary). Pros: modern facilities, extensive transfer options and shops; cons: longer transfer time to the city compared with the closer airport. Gimpo Airport (GMP) functions as a smaller domestic and short-haul international airport, serving many low-cost and regional carriers and usually offering cheaper fares for short routes. It lies roughly 15 km from the city center and can be accessed via subway (20–30 minutes), airport limousine buses (25–45 minutes), or taxis (20–40 minutes). Pros: convenience and shorter travel times to central Seoul; cons: fewer long-haul options and smaller terminal capacity compared with Incheon.

Jakarta is served primarily by Soekarno–Hatta International Airport (CGK), the country's main international and regional hub that handles most full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines; Halim Perdanakusuma (HLP) can be used for some domestic and business flights. CGK sits about 20–30 km northwest of central Jakarta, with journey times typically 45–90 minutes depending on traffic; options include the airport train (around 35–50 minutes, moderate fares), taxis or ride-hailing services (45–90 minutes, fares vary with demand), and private transfer shuttles. Halim is closer to the city (roughly 10–20 minutes from eastern neighborhoods). Pros: wide route choices and frequent services at CGK; cons: congestion and rush-hour delays that can affect transfers and perceived value for time-sensitive trips.
