Cheap Flights to Seoul
Cheap flights to Seoul bring you into the capital of South Korea, a city of royal palaces, night markets and riverside parks that rewards a long weekend as easily as a business trip. Arrivals peak in spring and autumn, when the weather is mild and the calendar fills with festivals, and again around the winter holidays. Travellers reach it from Warsaw, Budapest, Chisinau, Krakow, Prague, Vienna, Frankfurt, Bucharest, Milan and London.
Flights to Seoul — where from
Airports — Seoul
Seoul is served by two airports. Incheon International takes most long-haul arrivals and sits outside the city; express rail, commuter trains, airport buses and taxis run to the centre. Gimpo International is the closer of the two and covers many regional routes, with subway and bus links into the main districts. Carriers on this route include Air China, Austrian, China Eastern Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines, Hainan Airlines, Miat Mongolian Airlines, SCAT JSC Aircompany and Sichuan Airlines.
When to go
Spring and autumn are the sweet spots: mild, clear and busy, with blossom early in the year and foliage later on. Summer brings heat, humidity and heavy rain, while winter turns cold and dry. Flights fill fastest around the big national holidays and the school breaks, so book early if your dates are fixed.
