Car Hire Gimpo Airport

Gimpo Airport is located 15 kilometers on the western side of Seoul central Business District. Until the construction of Incheon international Airport, Gimpo was the main Seoul’s airport until the year 2001. Even with the replacement, the airport has never ceased to offer excellent services to its customers who are the travelers, and to ensure that it meets the expectations of every traveler who sets his or her foot in it, it underwent some remodeling to enable it service major international flights.

The seriousness about its upgrade was seen back I 2006 when the whole passenger terminal was refurbished to include an overpass that now serves as a link from the entrance of Gimpo Airport to the departures. The parking is another section that had to undergo reconstruction to accommodate another 1,000 more cars.

International travelers must do some shopping whether they are arriving or departing, and to cater for that there was the addition of a mega shopping mall complete with leisure facilities such as a movie theatre. The upgrade now makes Gimpo Airport feel like a home away from home.
