It provides service to [[Gimpo International Airport]] and Seoul. Many of the stations along the line provide connections to [[Incheon Subway]], [[Seoul Metropolitan Subway]], and [[Incheon Airport Maglev]]. For departing passengers, [[Seoul Station City Airport Terminal]] offers [[Airport check-in#In-town check-in|in-town early check-in]] service and has related immigration services before arriving at the airport. After [[City Air Logistics & Transportation|CALT]] closed its in-town check-in operation at Gangnam in 2023, the Seoul Station City Airport Terminal is the only available place in Seoul where in-town check-in service is provided.<ref>{{Cite news |last1=๊ฐ |first1=๋ค์ |script-title=ko:๊ฐ๋จ ๋์ฌ๊ณตํญํฐ๋ฏธ๋, 33๋ ๋ง์ ๊ฒฐ๊ตญ ํ์ |trans-title=Gangnam City Airport Terminal permanently closes its business after 33 years |language=Korean |url=https://www.chosun.com/economy/industry-company/2023/02/02/NNSJRDBFSFDELDOTBEX5KMM7MY |work=[[The Chosun Ilbo]] |location=Seoul |date=2 February 2023 |access-date=13 May 2024}}</ref> The [[Korea Train Express|Korea Train eXpress (KTX)]] operated at the same station as AREX but used a different platform.

The service started in 2014 but was suspended in March 2018 due to low ridership.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://kojects.com/2018/06/10/incheon-airport-ktx-suspended/ |title= Incheon Airport KTX Service Suspended |last= Medimorec |first= Nikola |date= 10 June 2018 |website= Kojects |access-date= 9 July 2018 |quote= In 2014, Korail began to offer KTX high-speed train connections from Incheon International Airport to Seoul, Daegu, Busan and other cities in Korea. The Incheon Airport KTX service was suspended now at the end of March 2018. The main reason was that the demand was too low and ridership stayed far below necessary numbers. |archive-date= 22 September 2020 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200922085121/https://kojects.com/2018/06/10/incheon-airport-ktx-suspended/ |url-status= live }}</ref> The suspension became permanent in September 2018 as the line was officially closed.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.fntoday.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=167285 |script-title=ko:9์๋ถํฐ ์ธ์ฒ๊ณตํญ KTX ๋ ธ์ ํ์ง |last= ๋ฐ |first= ์ฌ๊ท |date= 7 August 2018 |website= FNToday |access-date= 10 August 2018 |language= ko |archive-date= 22 September 2020 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200922085150/http://www.fntoday.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=167285 |url-status= live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= http://news1.kr/photos/details/?3242951 |script-title=ko:2014๋ ๊ฐํตํ '์ธ์ฒ๊ณตํญ KTX' ํ์ง |last= ๋ฏผ |first= ๊ฒฝ์ |date= 7 August 2018 |website= News1 |access-date= 10 August 2018 |language= ko |archive-date= 10 August 2018 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20180810105129/http://news1.kr/photos/details/?3242951 |url-status= live }}</ref> The [[Incheon Airport Maglev]] opened on 3 February 2016, and closed on 1 September 2023.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.airport.kr/ap_lp/en/tpt/pblctpt/magtrainf/magtrainf.do |access-date=30 December 2023 |title=About maglev train}}</ref> The first phase was to be 6.1 km long, spread over six stations (but eight stations were built, spanning more than 8 km), taking riders from the airport toward the southwest of the island where a water park is located. Phase 2 was to be 9.7 km long, extending the line to the northwest of the island. Phase 3 would have added 37.4 km, transforming the line into a circle.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://kojects.com/2012/01/28/maglev-at-incheon-international-airport-to-be-completed-this-year/ |title= Maglev at Incheon International Airport to be completed this year |last= Medimorec |first= Nikola |date= 28 January 2012 |website= Kojects |access-date= 10 July 2018 |quote= Two more stages of construction are planned for the line; stage two is a 9.7 km extension that continues from Yongyoo Station, past the planned Marine World and up to Dragon City. Though this stage was originally scheduled to be completed in time for the Asian Games, setbacks in the development of neighboring projects are still causing delays. The final stage will be significantly longer, a 37.4 km extension that continues around the outer rim of the island and loops back to the airport. |archive-date= 8 May 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20190508105826/https://kojects.com/2012/01/28/maglev-at-incheon-international-airport-to-be-completed-this-year/ |url-status= live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= http://frdb2.ivyro.net/974.htm |script-title=ko:์์ข ์๊ธฐ๋ถ์์ด์ฐจ 2๋จ๊ณ |last= Han |first= Woojin |website= ๋ฏธ๋์ฒ ๋DB |access-date= 9 July 2018 |language= ko |archive-date= 22 September 2020 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200922085246/http://frdb2.ivyro.net/ |url-status= live }}</ref><ref>{{cite conference |url= http://www.maglev.ir/eng/documents/papers/conferences/maglev2011/DPO-10.pdf |title= Review on Incheon International Airport & Urban MagLev Interface |last1= Song |first1= C.

Buses are free, arrive every 5 to 8 minutes, take approximately 20 minutes of travel time, and stop at the Hyatt Hotel or airport fire station en route, depending on direction. Airport buses are called limousine buses. Standard limousine buses travel to Gimpo Airport & [[Songjeong station]]. Intercity buses connect with other towns and cities in Korea. The [[City Air Logistics & Transportation]] company runs an airport bus line directly connected to the bus station at [[COEX]], Gangnam.<ref>{{cite web|title=Incheon Airport Bus Station|url=https://www.airport.kr/ap_lp/ko/tpt/pblctpt/busstoinft1/busstoinft1.do|access-date=22 March 2018|archive-date=27 January 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180127003029/https://www.airport.kr/ap_lp/ko/tpt/pblctpt/busstoinft1/busstoinft1.do|url-status=live}}</ref> ====Ferry==== A ferry service connects Yeongjong-do to the mainland.

Shuttle services connect the long-term parking lot to the passenger terminal and the cargo terminal. Car rental is located near the long-term parking lot. A link to the mainland is provided by the toll [[Yeongjong Bridge]] and an [[Incheon International Airport Expressway|expressway]]. A second expressway on the [[Incheon Bridge]] also connects the island to central [[Incheon]]. ===Roads=== It is connected to the [[Incheon Bridge]] and the [[Second Gyeongin Expressway|2nd Gyeongin Expressway]]. Airport limousine buses, which have been operating since the day Incheon International Airport opened, and many visitors in private cars use this road. When the 3rd Yeonyukgyo Bridge opens in 2025, a general road connecting to the [[Gyeongin Expressway]], Incheon Airport will be accessible by two-wheeled vehicles and on foot. <!-- removed taxi/train/bus/ferry/limousine, schedule, route and fare information, as per [[WP:NOTTRAVEL]] -->
