Which airpor to fly into?

Hello, I%26#39;m planning on taking my mom (68 years old) on a two week trip to S. Korea next spring. The last time we were there we flew into Kimpo. Now there is an alternative, Inchon. Does anyone have any recommendations of which airport is better to fly in/out of and why? Thanks for the opinions and advice.

Kimpo airport is now mainly for domestic flights and few international flights from Japan. Incheon airport(ICN) is for most of international flights. This is excellent airport but little further away from Seoul than Kimpo.

Yes, it%26#39;s not really a question of alternatives. Unless you%26#39;re coming from Japan, you will almost certainly fly into Incheon.



The limo buses now go to Incheon (although you can get buses to Gimpo) and most do not call at Gimpo on their way to/from Seoul (or other places in Korea). By rail the airport train however goes from Incheon to Gimpo, where you can take the normal subway into town.



I%26#39;d take the bus!




Thanks very much for the info.
