Foreigner-exclusive Taxi

City of Seoul provides foreigner exclusive taxi from Incheon Airport to Seoul, which uses a standard distance-based fare. Taxi fare is 85000(KRW, $80) from Incheon Airport to the conference venue. You can reserve this service from one of the following options:

City Airport

Coex City Airport located next to the conference hotel (within 10 min. of walking distance). You can check-in at the city airport in advance to reduce queuing time at the (actual) Incheon airport. Note that the services are not provided to all airlines.

Airport Railroad (AREX) and Subway

You can reach the venue by taking Airport Railroad (AREX) and subway. However, the transit makes the route quite complex (hence, we recommend taking the bus option).

To get to the venue via AREX and subway (80 minutes of estimated travel time)

  1. Take AREX from Incheon International Airport
  2. Transfer to Line Number 9 at Gimpo International Airport. We recommend you to take express train instead of regular train. You can save around 15 minutes.
  3. Take the Line Number 9 and get off at Bongeunsa Station.
  4. InterContinental Hotel Seoul Coex is about five minutes walk towards Aquarium from COEX Mall which is connected to Exit #7.
