Rail or express buses usually beat taxis for cost and predictability in traffic-prone cities.

Late-night arrivals may have reduced frequencies—check the last departure on the operator site before you fly.

Tickets and payment

Buy from official counters/apps when possible. Keep a card and some local cash for gaps.

If using contactless, confirm your card works on local gates before relying on it exclusively.

Arrival day tips

Choose a hotel near a major transit stop for your first nights in Seoul.
