Incheon Airport Train

I%26#39;ve heard rumours that the long awaited train link to Incheon Airport is due to open in March. Can anyone confirm when/if this is due to open? Also, once running how long would it take to transfer into central Seoul? Thanks!



Incheon Airport Train


Incheon aiport already opend 16th March but that is Incheon-Kimpo line. You can go Seoul from Incheon airport by Airport limousine. I think it is the easiest waty to go Seoul. :)

Ok - so it is easier and quicker to get an airport limousine than taking the train to kimpo then subway from there?




yes i think so. :)




I agree- the buses are great. Unless your hotel is on the direct line (when it opens) you have to face stairs and possibly multiple changes of train.




Taking a limousine bus is the easiest and the most convenient way to reach to central city area.





It%26#39;s a real comfy limo, just as business class of airflight. It worth the cost and very fast.




I heard that the train is great if you have a connecting domestic flight that leaves from the Kimpo airport, which is located at peripheral area of Seoul.



The train is supposed to be linked to central Seoul in a few more years.

for further informations on train




I have a 12 hr layover at Incheon Airport and want to go into Seoul to walk around for a few hours. The train is from Incheon airport to Gimpo airport then I take a subway into town? Or the limobus leaves from Incheon airport and goes direct to downtown? Where do I catch it and how much does it cost round-trip?




I recommend you to take limo bus to the town.





Please refer this article which I replied.

You can take a KAL bus or there are others. There%26#39;s a ticket office outside the airport building; KAL is about 14000Won each way.



Others may be cheaper.
