Transport in Seoul

I used AREX to and from Incheon Airport and Seoul Station, and it was super convenient. The train arrived and left on time. A huge plus is that you can check in your bags at Seoul Station if you're flying with participating airlines like Jeju Air, Korean Air, Air Busan, and others (check first if your airline is included!). The AREX line was short, and because I had already checked in at Seoul Station, I didn't have to line up at the airport check-in counters anymore. I went straight to immigration and security. Definitely a time-saver!

Regarding the morning meeting point, our departure from Hapjeong Station, the first stop, isn't actually at 8:50 AM. Instead, the bus will arrive at the stop around 8:50 AM, and then ticket checking will take another 3-5 minutes. However, since this is the first stop, you'll have a better selection of seats. We arrived around 10:00 AM. Even though it was a weekend, it seemed to be the amusement park's off-season, so traffic was relatively light. The bus was filled with local middle school students enjoying their summer vacation. I want to specifically mention the return trip. After leaving Everland, it takes less than 10 minutes to reach Parking Lot 2 via the shuttle bus. So, according to the guide, as long as you board the shuttle bus by 6:15 PM, you'll make it. Furthermore, I noticed that the staff at the departure station will always wait for the group returning. This is because the middle school students we saw on the way there actually boarded our bus at 6:38 PM, and everyone on the bus waited for them. So, if you're really running late, there's no need to panic. Although it sacrifices everyone's time, it's quite considerate that they wait to take everyone back together.

very satisfied with the use of WowPass, convenient and easy to transfer as well as manage funds during my stay in Seoul

This is very convenient to buy, use, and follow. After buying this, you just have to locate the booth and get the physical tickets, locate the platform, give the tickets, and board the bus then you’re good. In going to the airport, just go from your pick up stop and then just give the ticket and board the bus again. No hassle at all.

the bus stop in Dongdaemun is just a 8 minutes from our hotel. a very convenient transportation if you arrived late in Incheon.

Easy to redeem, just across the bus ticket redemption area as well. Value for money if you are using various payment platform promotions.

The fastest and most convenient way to travel from Busan to Seoul is by train. There’s no strict ticket checking when boarding, but it’s best to keep your ticket ready in case of random inspections. The journey takes around 2.5 hours, making it smooth and relaxing—I was even able to sleep through most of it. Just make sure to be at the boarding area early. The platform is usually announced about 15 minutes before departure, so stay alert. Trains depart exactly on time, so don’t be late!

Good experience riding the KTX train to Busan. Booked earlier for seat reservation. No need for physical ticket exchange - all via online using their Korail App.

Easy to redeem, comfortable bus. Have space for luggage. On time departure. Staff speaks English. Coupons provided
