Seoul is served by two main airports with different roles. Incheon International (ICN) functions as the city’s principal international hub and tends to handle long-haul and full-service carriers, while Gimpo (GMP) is usually positioned as the domestic and regional gateway, popular with low-cost and legacy carriers on short routes. Incheon sits about 48–60 km from central Seoul; express train or airport bus journeys can take roughly 50–70 minutes, with fares typically ranging from modest to mid-tier depending on service. Gimpo is much closer, roughly 15–20 minutes by subway or 20–40 minutes by taxi from downtown, with lower fares. Pros: Incheon offers extensive amenities, lounges and international connections; Gimpo is convenient for quick transfers and budget travel. Cons: Incheon’s distance can add transport time and cost, while Gimpo has fewer long-haul options and fewer premium services.
Kuala Lumpur is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA/KUL) is the country’s main international hub and typically handles long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many regional connections; low-cost carriers also use its nearby KLIA2 terminal. It sits about 45–60 km from the city centre, with travel options including the KLIA Ekspres train (roughly 28–35 minutes, usually pricier than buses), airport coach services (about 60–90 minutes, more budget-friendly), taxis or app rides (variable by traffic and route). Pros: efficient rail link and full services; cons: relatively long transfer times into central Kuala Lumpur and possible extra costs for transfers during peak hours.
Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (Subang/SZB) functions mainly as a secondary airport focusing on short-haul turboprop and business aviation, plus some domestic flights and regional turboprops; it can be preferred by travelers wanting proximity to the western suburbs. Subang is located about 20 km from central Kuala Lumpur, reachable by taxi or ride-hailing in roughly 25–40 minutes depending on traffic, and limited bus services offer cheaper but slower options. Pros: closer to downtown, easier access for business travelers; cons: fewer international routes and smaller facilities compared with KLIA.
