With Korea surrounded by water on three sides and a demilitarized zone with North Korea to the north, most travelers come to Korea by air. There is two airports in Seoul:
1-Incheon International Airport
This airport is the primary gateway to Korea, it is located about an hour-and-a-half (73 km) west of downtown Seoul. Opened in 2001, Incheon International Airport is one of the most technologically advanced airports in the world, and the sixth busiest in Asia. It serves as a transportation hub in Northeast Asia, providing a convenient spot to connect to flights to other East Asian destinations.
