Gimpo International Airport

Formerly known as the Kimpo International Airport, this airport is located at the westernmost portion of Seoul. It is the second biggest airport in the country of Korea, with only Incheon International Airport surpassing it. Gimpo has both international and domestic flights.

Domestic passenger flights include Asiana Airlines, Air Busan, Eastar Jet, Jeju Air, Jin Air, and Korean Air. The Japanese forces originally built the airport during WWII.
