Seoul Airport Rail Link is now open

Ten years after it opened, Incheon, Seoul’s international aviation gateway, has finally gained a non-stop express rail link to the city centre.  Totalling 58kms the line is an extension of an existing link between Incheon and the former Gimpo International Airport now used mainly for domestic and regional flights.

The non-stop service departs every 30 minutes, takes 43 minutes, with a cost of approx US$11.  There is a stopping train every six minutes calling at ten stations along the line, with the charge just US$3 for the ten-minute longer journey.

A luggage terminal has also opened in Seoul Station, allowing passengers to check-in and drop off items to be transported to the airport (currently limited to Korean Air and Asiana Airlines). http://seoul-airport.com
