David NoëlSeptember 8, 2012One of the cleanest and most modern airports I've ever been, free and fast wifi everywhere. Korean culture spots, endless duty free, friendly staff, efficient immigration. Take note, USA.
Dave McJune 26, 2023One of the best airports around. Lots of great shops, clean, easy to get in and out of, you really can’t ask for more. Beware though, it’s pretty big, so your gate may be pretty far! 🚶♀️ 🚶♀️ 🚶♀️
Upvoted Dec 17, 2024- Belinda CayapanJuly 21, 2012Amazing! Hands down the best airport worldwide from 2005-2012! Check out the airport's golf course, casino, ice skating rink, indoor gardens, spa, private sleeping rooms, and Museum of Korean Culture.
Paula PVSeptember 16, 2013This is The best AIRPORT In the world. Free wifi, shower, rest areas, wonderful dutty free, friendly and helpful staff, massages, hotel In The transit area... Really The best. Clap Clap Clap Korea!
Pieter LevelsNovember 28, 2018One of the world's best airports. It's modern, clean and efficient. The airport express (AREX) gives it a direct link to Seoul Station, the central station. Get a T-Money transit card for AREX. 9/10
Alessandro CandeoJuly 31, 2016International hub with very good land services and fast transfer between terminals and Seoul. Great choice of shops including luxury goods. Samsung and LG outlets reachable via free shuttle service.
If you flying Korean air and staying here on transit for a long waiting period, ask for the hotel at the KA information desk! I've got free stay at the Korean air Hayatt 🇰🇷💙 have a good flight !
Nicole TenSeptember 1, 2014Very huge, clean, nice airport. Free WiFi everywhere. U can get variety of Asia food and fast food in Foodcourt near Korea culture lounge. Got to saw the demonstration of the loyal family line.
DavidOctober 16, 2014The world's best airport I have seen so far. Huge number of boutiques. Large choice of restaurants. Big relaxation area with massage rooms. Entertainment shows. Free WiFi.
Spacious and clean. One of the top airports in the world. Really comfortable for layovers.
Adam StallmanApril 29, 2018A massive airport with great food options. American and Korean cuisine. Also has some very large duty free shops. Make sure to check the boards right when you walk in to find where to check bags.
Peter LopezJanuary 26, 2014If you have a long layover. Don't worry, theres a lot to do and the rest area is amazing. Massage chairs, lounge chairs, lazy-boys, area for kids, free showers (very clean)
TingOctober 31, 2014Big Airport with many tourist friendly amenities and a centre dedicated to traditional Korean cultural experience. Most impressed with the automated tax refund machines. So high tech!
Mark BrouchNovember 6, 2014This is the nicest airport I've ever been to! There's a quiet area upstairs with big comfy reclining chairs you can take a nap on as well as free showers.
Rohit GopalJanuary 10, 2018One of the best airports around. Check out the free tours of seoul available for ticketed transfers through ICN, and cultural exhibits around the airport! If you don't have that time just eat! :)
M Aldoss ♏October 2, 2018Big airport, variety stores and not the best lounges (Crowded), especially at night (when all the stores are close). The travelers services are surprisingly quick.
One of my favorite airports. Modern, clean and so much to do! Check out the free cultural interactive space. They even have a parade through the airport.
Robin BertelsOctober 7, 2014Rated best airport in the world since 2005 by Airports Council International. It's located on an artificially created piece of land 50 km west of Seoul.
Nick KFebruary 11, 2018Free showers, plenty of restaurants and coffee shops. WiFi is good, no need to register with the phone number. AliPay works in some shops, but not everywhere, majority accepts local currency or USD.
Best airport of the world?Try coming here for a 23h00 flight and vote then! Restaurants close at 21h00,the few ones that remain open serve quick-to-cook meals. So be ready to settle for a lousy hotdog
Dan Mondragón SomeraJanuary 7, 2017Really cool and modern airport that you can get to through the subway. It's getting renovated so it's a bit tricky once you are there to get to your terminal, but you'll be fine
Nate SNovember 17, 2014Welcome to the future. This place is consistently ranked as one of the best airports in the world- and it's easy to see why.
ClemensFebruary 6, 2015Super fast free wifi, endless shopping possibilities and friendly international staff. Rightfully considered as one of the best airports in the world.
Love the cultural center. Kills time faster. So far the best Airport I have seen. Plus, the best Burger King branch in the world is inside the airport. :) 👍 #musttry #incheon
CharmOctober 2, 2019The place is great! One of the best airports I’ve been to. Every corner is clean and tidy. There’s a lot of stores for shopping and eating. Has fast and free wifi too!
Reza RiskawaOctober 14, 2015Big, clean and comfortable. Train to Seoul City is in another building exit 10 or 8. Buy the Korean SIM card (Olleh Network) at GS25 in front of Exit 8. Surau/Mushalla is available.
MarcFebruary 12, 2015Leaving early in the morning and craving breakfast? Head to Paris Croissant located on the arrival level of ICN. Tasty food in a comfortable setting. I
Mazin AlJuly 12, 2019one of the largest & busiest airports in the world, The airport opened for business on 29 March 2001 to replace the older Gimpo International Airport.
Great place for a layover because there are lots of things to look, to buy, to experience, and to eat! Need to take a shuttle to your gate at the other side? No problem! Just as many shops there!
My favourite airport. Spending hours here in transit or just waiting for your flight is fun~ free wifi, shops, duty free. Enough seats and lots of cafes, special charging points for phones etc
Jim BaileyJuly 22, 2016Nice airport with lots of shopping and quick food options. Getting through security and around the airport is straight forward and a breeze.
Annie WangMarch 26, 2015Go to this sm. exclusive shop by gate 31 to buy nicely packaged dessert between $8~25 for souvenirs. They are very different from the very commercialized packaging available elsewhere in the airport.
Athirah AzizDecember 26, 2022The immigration staffs are so effective even though they couldnt speak English.. priority given to pregnant women & parents with young kids. What i love the most is the clean toilet! Not so much shops
Christopher MaFebruary 20, 2014one of the top, if not the best airport in the world, super clean, great duty free shops and good restaurants. Great airport for transit, but not too close to the city.
Seoul Incheon is one of the best airports I have ever been to, I wish every airport could be as perfect as ICN is!
Nella PhamJuly 8, 2013We had a 10 hr layover and spent it in the airport. This airport is AWESOME! Lots to do, be sure to pick up a map and enjoy! Free showers and rest area upstairs. .kids play area.. free painting.
I love how fast they are in doing the customs process. Long lines but very fast services. They have a major issue by not serving international food and all the stores close by 9:30 pm .. NO NO NO
Irfan AliJanuary 2, 2015Very cool trendy airport.... Everything is so easy to get to and well organised... If you see the airport from a birds eye view then you'll be in for a surprise 😂😂😂
Praful GuptaAugust 19, 2013Great international airport! Free wifi available throughout the airport! Upstairs section in the main lobby offers free shower rooms, live stage and massage areas. Korean cultural experience shop!- One of the best international airports in the world! Huge, clean, airy, and with tons of duty free shops and snack bars in the terminal.
Evan YeJanuary 10, 2015Fast Wifi, no logins, lots of interesting theme cafes such as Charlie Brown and Hello Kitty available, keeping you entertained during lengthy layovers.
Pamela LimMay 23, 2015At the Lotte Duty Free Etude House cosmetics sect, ask for a discount & the sales person would give 5% additional discount if you buy at least 3 items and 10% discount if you buy 5 items or more.- IbrahemSeptember 20, 2016As busy as it's, it was so calm at some point ( that's for u the tired travelers.) You better grab something to eat before going thru the security gates cuz once you pass, prices hike up!
Lito MaggayJanuary 21, 2013Enormous and clean. Staff speak good English and friendly. A transit hotel is also within the airport but best to book in advance to avoid disappointment or avail staying in rest and relax lounges.
Neil LagulaJune 16, 2013There's a hotel between gates 10 and 11 where you can lounge or sleep if you have long lay over. You can also take the transit tour while waiting for your flight. Toilets have potable water fountains.
Very nice & clean airport. However tax refund is very headache. High value goods must be hand carry and show to the Custom Officer to get stamp! then you have to get cash refund in a different kiosk.
