A few airport reviews from the archives

Incheon has consistently improved over the years, and the new terminal, which was opened recently, makes a nice addition. An underground train takes passengers to the new terminal. There are lots of places to eat and shop, and prices for food are high, but not outrageous and comparative to prices in Seoul. Shopping in the Incheon airport is ALL duty free and boutique shops...with prices a bit ridiculous. Yes, 15 for a cheap key-ring is just a tad too much. I would HIGHLY recommend the cultural activity for anyone who has enough time. Basically, passengers get to make a traditional Korean craft. Lots of fun, and the ladies who run it are very sweet. It is free of charge, and a really nice way to pass the time.

I'd stay here any time! This airport was BEAUTIFUL! State of the art, clean, comfortable, and with amenities galore! They even have a delightful "Cultural" center where you can make a traditional Korean handicraft for free from 9am - 10pm every day! (I made a box that was a perfect gift upon my return!)
There were so many choices for food and entertainment that I was reluctant to get on my plane! As far as sleep goes, comfortable benches and loungers were perfect -- and with crime virtually non-existent in Seoul, you don't even have to worry about your possessions while you nap!
so, just how bad is this airport?
