About Gimpo International Airport

Gimpo International Airport (GMP) is located in western Seoul, about 15 kilometers from the city center, and serves as one of South Korea’s main aviation facilities for domestic and short-haul international travel. Before the opening of Incheon International Airport in 2001, Gimpo Airport handled most of Seoul’s international air traffic. Today, it focuses on domestic flights and selected regional international routes.
