AREX (Airport Railroad Express), Incheon, South Korea

4.5 (1.049 reviews) Spent Ranking #2 in Incheon Rail Services

Comfortable way to go from Incheon to town but more time needed than limousine bus......

We used to take the airport limousine bus to our hotels downtown but this time decided to take AREX. It is comfortable & convenient & I believe also cheaper than limousine bus. The AREX journey takes about an hour but safer to give 2 hours as lots of time needed to walk from hotel to train station, long walks within train station itself & in Incheon Airport itself, lots of walking to the terminal

    Normal train to Hongik University Station - great!
    Since we stayed near Hongik University Station, we could only take the Normal train instead of the Express option which would have cost double. Taxis and airport transfers were out since these two options cost multiple times what the AREX does. The trip took about 1hour 10min each way (including walking to our hotel L7 Hongdae Hotel). Not much room for luggage so I would imagine handling luggage would be trickier during peak periods when the carriages are a lot more crowded. Even then, I would still tough it out given the high costs of airport transfer and taxis.

    A useful train
    This train service is excellent. Very frequent, and good value for money. Please note, though, that there is not much room for large suitcases if the train is crowded (which can happen near to Seoul, especially in the rush hour).
