How do I get from Incheon Airport to central Seoul?

Seoul · Updated 2026-10 · From MeTravel's own trips

The AREX train is the fastest and cheapest option; a limousine bus is more convenient if your hotel is located right at a stop.

  • AREX Express (non-stop train): About 43 minutes from Terminal 1 or 51 minutes from Terminal 2 to Seoul Station.
  • AREX All-stop train: Cheaper, takes about an hour, and stops at Hongdae—convenient if you are staying in that area.
  • Limousine bus: About 60–90 minutes (depending on traffic), running directly to Myeongdong, Gangnam, and Jamsil; a good choice if you have large suitcases.
  • Taxi: About 60–90 minutes and the most expensive option; best suited for late-night arrivals or groups.

Note: You can pay for the All-stop train using a T-money card, which can be purchased at airport convenience stores.
