Incheon Airport to Seoul by Subway (AREX)

Seoul Subway Last Train Times · Incheon Airport to Seoul by Subway (AREX) · How to Ride the Seoul Subway

The easiest way from Incheon International Airport into Seoul is the airport railroad, AREX (Airport Railroad). It runs from Incheon Int’l Airport Terminal 2 and Incheon Int’l Airport Terminal 1 through Gimpo Int’l Airport, Hongik Univ. and Gongdeok to Seoul Station.

All-stop train or Express train?

• All-stop (commuter) train – stops at every AREX station and takes roughly an hour from Terminal 1 to Seoul Station. You pay with a regular transit card such as T-money, just like any subway line, and can change to other lines on the same fare system.
• Express train – runs non-stop between the airport and Seoul Station and is a little faster, but needs its own ticket. It is handy if you are staying near Seoul Station.

Fares change from time to time, so check the price at the ticket machine or counter.

Where to change to other lines

• Gimpo Int’l Airport: Line 5, Line 9, Seohae Line, Gimpo Goldline
• Hongik Univ.: Line 2, Gyeongui-Jungang Line
• Gongdeok: Line 5, Line 6, Gyeongui-Jungang Line
• Seoul Station: Line 1, Line 4, Gyeongui-Jungang Line
