How much is a flight from Kyoto to Seoul?

"How much is the Kyoto to Seoul flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours arranges the current cost for your date shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the e-ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Kyoto to Seoul: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Kyoto to Seoul is normally booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our team applies on every booking:

• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
• Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we verify
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Kyoto to Seoul that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

How to book flights from Kyoto to Seoul with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Kyoto to Seoul is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you let us know by WhatsApp when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

• Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you through WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
• Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
• Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Seoul

Because a person books it, we can do what a booking site does not: seat a family together, choose the fare with the right bag, add an infant correctly, line up the Kyoto to Seoul flight with a transfer from your accommodation to Kansai International Airport (1h 20m from Kyoto Station by Haruka) (KIX) and a driver waiting at Seoul Incheon or Gimpo (ICN / GMP).

Airlines flying from Kyoto to Seoul

On the flight from Kyoto to Seoul you can choose between Korean Air, Asiana, Jeju Air, Peach, T'way Air and Jin Air.

We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.

• Korean Air - Kyoto to Seoul

• Jin Air - Kyoto to Seoul

Departure: Kansai International Airport (1h 20m from Kyoto Station by Haruka) (KIX)

Flights from Kyoto to Seoul leave from Kansai International Airport (1h 20m from Kyoto Station by Haruka) (KIX), serving Kyoto - kyoto is the old imperial capital of two thousand temples, Fushimi Inari's red gates, the bamboo grove and the geisha lanes of Gion. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The JR Haruka limited express runs from Kansai Airport to Kyoto Station in about 75 minutes and is a good, reliable choice for one or two passengers with light luggage; the difficulty comes afterwards, because many ryokan and hotels sit on narrow lanes far from the station, and buses are crowded with suitcases. A private car takes you to the hotel entrance and suits families, groups and large luggage.

• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your hotel in Kyoto to Kansai International Airport (1h 20m from Kyoto Station by Haruka)
• Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Kansai International Airport (1h 20m from Kyoto Station by Haruka)
• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one

Arrival: Seoul Incheon or Gimpo (ICN / GMP) and getting into Seoul

The flight lands at Seoul Incheon or Gimpo (ICN / GMP). Seoul is the capital of South Korea, a city of palaces and neon along the Han river, served by Incheon International (ICN) about 50 km west on its own island and Gimpo (GMP) about 20 km west for domestic and short regional flights; Myeongdong, Gangnam, Hongdae and Insadong are the districts most visitors stay in. From arrivals you have taxis, local transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Kyoto to Seoul journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Onward flights or trains from Seoul the same day can be added to the booking; tell us and we choose a Kyoto to Seoul departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Kyoto to Seoul flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Kyoto to Seoul. Full-service fares typically include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare

Flying with children, families and groups from Kyoto to Seoul

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in Seoul when you land

Seoul is the capital of South Korea, a city of palaces and neon along the Han river, served by Incheon International (ICN) about 50 km west on its own island and Gimpo (GMP) about 20 km west for domestic and short regional flights; Myeongdong, Gangnam, Hongdae and Insadong are the districts most visitors stay in. The reasons travellers fly from Kyoto to Seoul include the Dongdaemun Design Plaza, Insadong's tea houses and galleries, a Han river cruise, Lotte World Tower and Seoul Sky and the DMZ, a day trip north. For the first meal, try Korean barbecue in Gangnam, street food at Gwangjang Market and tteokbokki in Myeongdong.

Haqqi Tours provides guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Seoul; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Kyoto to Seoul

Flights from Kyoto to Seoul run all year, 10+ a day. Spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November) are the beautiful seasons; summer is hot and humid with the monsoon in July; winter is cold and dry with skiing near the city; the Chuseok and Lunar New Year holidays empty the city and fill the roads out of it. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.
