Busan Gimhae Airport is not large, so it is recommended to arrive 2-2.5 hours in advance~👌🏻 1️⃣ Airport drop-off service (hotel -> airport) Since I had to leave for the airport in the morning on the day I returned home, I made an appointment for the airport drop-off service on the online platform ✈️ The price will be slightly different from different locations, and the vehicle types range from small cars (3 people) to large buses (30 people). Choose according to the number of people traveling with you ☺️ The driver will contact me the day before departure and confirm the meeting time and location👍🏻 The driver arrived at the meeting place 5 minutes early on the day, and even helped put away the luggage. He is very kind and friendly🤩 The drive from the hotel (Haeundae) to the airport is about 45 minutes The whole trip was very comfortable! (It was stormy that day, so it would be very awkward if you took the transportation with your luggage~🥹) 2️⃣ Tax refund Before security check, go to the self-service tax refund machine between Gate 3 and 4 on the 2nd floor to scan your tax refund form and passport, and just follow the instructions👌🏻 (If it shows ⭕️, you can go through the security check directly. If it shows ❌, you have to go to the customs opposite to get it stamped) After passing the security check, go to Gate 4 to collect money. You can choose to receive cash (KRW/RMB/USD), Alipay or WeChat💰 3️⃣ Four patterns of life You can take photos of the Four Frames of Life everywhere in Korea, and Gimhae Airport also has limited themed Four Frames of Life~💖 (before security check) There are also themes of airplanes, Gwangalli Bridge, sky capsules, etc., which are very special✨ And in addition to ordinary headwear, there are also There is a boss hat that you can wear for shooting~👩✈️🤣 (₩6,000/2 photos) 4️⃣ Restaurant There are not many choices of restaurants and coffee shops in the airport. There is still some time after the security check, so we went to 한와담소반 to have something to eat. Their beef noodles are delicious, but those who like strong flavors may not like them🤣. We also went to Angel- I bought a cup of coffee from in-us~☕️ 5️⃣ Shopping The only duty-free shop is Lotte Duty Free, which is not large, but you can also reserve some time to browse around🛍️ In addition, if you want to buy souvenir cookie gift boxes, etc., it is recommended to buy them in Busan City.

#0yentripFebruary2025 From Gimhae Airport to Haeundae by train When you exit the main entrance of the airport, cross the sidewalk and go straight to the right, you will find the Gimhae Light Rail. It's close to the airport so it's convenient. It's a little long to Haeundae, but everyone is kind enough to tell you where to go (*´ω｀*) [504. Airport → 501. Sasang] 6 minutes/3 stations Get off at Sasang and take Line 2 to Haeundae (You will have to transfer here once) [227. Sasang → 203. Haeundae] 45 minutes/24 stations (The color of the train destination is displayed on the wall of the footpath, etc., by the way, Line 2 is green) By the way, between Sasang Station and Haeundae, there is Seomyeon Station [219], which is the larger station, so it can be used as a landmark when going to Gukje Market, etc. Also, if you get off at Seomyeon Station, the view is different from the Lotte Hotel and department stores, so it's a fun place to get off♪ Apps that were useful for this trip ・Korea Subway ・Subway Both of these apps were easy to use♪ Finally, I went to Busan with Trip.com The trip was mainly to Haeundae^_^ First of all, before going, I called to check the low cost and they politely replied, "Your reservation has been made" I was able to travel to Korea with peace of mind🇰🇷 Thank you again for using this post♪

#JapanFlightEvent These days, I don't use Wi-Fi lunch box very often! I really like this! I used it for the first time when I was traveling and haven't used it since! It seems like everyone prefers this SIM these days. I also find this SIM more convenient! There is a Wi-Fi lunch box on the first floor of Gimhae Airport.

I took a Korean Air flight departing from Gimhae Airport, and as expected, I was very satisfied because it was Korean Air that I trusted. The inside of the plane was very clean, the flight attendants were kind, and the service was good. The ride was so comfortable that I was able to start my trip in a good mood throughout the flight. I always feel safe when I take Korean Air, and I want to use it again.💖🥹💖 #January travel support event #Jeju travel #Korean Air

#JapanFlightEvent I went there on a weekend afternoon. It is located between Jinyeong and Gimhae, and I thought it would be a good place to stop by after a weekend drive. There are various works in the exhibition hall, but it seems that the main theme here is ceramics. The garden is also well-maintained, so it is good for taking pictures, and the parking lot is spacious, so it seems like it would be good to come anytime.

In Korea, we had an early dinner before boarding the plane. We chose 풍경마루 Korean Restaurant for our last meal. The restaurant uses electronic ordering and payment systems, and they have a menu in Chinese, making it easy to order. Shortly after ordering, our sumptuous dinner arrived. Each set meal comes with several side dishes! These include kimchi, pickled vegetables, black beans, and Korean chili sauce, along with a steaming hot stone pot soup, making it very hearty. My set meal's stone pot soup was kimchi tofu soup. It was hot and spicy, very appetizing. Dad's stone pot soup was radish tofu soup, which was not spicy and had a clear, sweet taste, perfect for him. I chose the blood cockle bibimbap set for 18,000₩. It included a lot of vegetables, egg strips, and seaweed mixed with fresh blood cockles. Mixing it all together and taking a big bite was very satisfying. Tasting this authentic bibimbap in Korea was a dream come true. Dad had his first beef meal in Korea here! He chose the royal grilled beef set for 22,000₩. The thinly sliced beef was marinated with soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, sesame salt, green onions, and garlic. Dad thought the beef was a bit tough, but the flavor was acceptable.

#0yentravelJanuary2025 When you arrive at Gimhae Airport on your trip to Busan, the first place to go is YOGERPRESSO, located at the back of the cafe area on the first floor. The interior is spacious and bright, and the appearance is a little plain lol The smoothies and yogurt ice cream are rich and delicious. The price range is reasonable, from 4,000 won to 6,500 won. It is relatively empty at any time of the day, so you can relax. 📍YOGERPRESSO Busan Gimhae Airport Cafe Area 1F 2350 Daejeo 2-dong, Gangseo-gu, Busan Metropolitan City 6:00-21:00 #BusanTrip #Busan #BusanTourism
