Getting Around Ithaca

You can take a cab to Tompkins Regional Airport and leave your car at home. University Taxi, Yellow Cab, and Cayuga Taxi all offer fares to and from the airport.

The South Korean city of Seoul is served by three airports.

The airport is serviced by most major international airlines including British Airways, Delta Airlines, Japan Airlines, United Airlines and Air Canada. Secondary airports serving the city include Gimpo International, the city's domestic hub, and Seoul Airbase, where the Republic of Korea Air Force's 15th Composite Wing is stationed. Visitors from Japan, Taiwan and China often fly into Gimpo. Incheon International is about 32 miles west of the city center, located at 2172-1 Woonseo-Dong, Joong-Gu in Incheon City.
