Frequently asked questions
The All-Stop Train makes multiple stops along the route, including popular stations like Gimpo Airport and Hongdae. It feels similar to a regular commuter train, but it’s also the budget-friendly option - almost twice as cheap as the Express. It also runs more frequently, with trains every 5 to 10 minutes, compared to the Express Train’s 20 to 40 minutes.
Ultimately, pick the transfer option that fits your plans. If you want the fastest route into Seoul Station - and quicker than taking a taxi - the AREX Express Train is a no-brainer. If you’re travelling on a budget or your destination is an intermediate stop, the All-Stop Train will make the most sense.
You can buy your tickets in advance too, which saves you the hassle of figuring out when to purchase them on the day. You can also get return tickets if you pre-purchase them online.

In fact, AREX train tickets are cheaper online, and travel platforms like Pelago may offer extra savings when you use your Singapore Airlines booking reference number, earn KrisFlyer miles, or qualify for member specials. If you're interested, here's our complete guide to all the Pelago promo codes you can enjoy.

Fast and easy thank you
Direct redeem on the ticketing machine.. Nice B1G1…
Easy redemption from the self-serivce machine using bar code.
It was easy to redeem the tickets at the machine, and if you are traveling on Asiana, it is better because you may use the City Terminal for check-in.
