[2025 Cheongju Airports] Travel Guide for Cheongju International Airport (Updated Jun)

If you think that only Incheon and Gimpo are worth planning, then you really underestimate Cheongju Airport! This time I chose to enter Korea from Cheongju Airport. As soon as I got off the plane, I felt relieved. There were no crowds, customs clearance was fast, and the overall flow was super smooth. It is especially suitable for travelers who don't like crowds. Although the airport is not big, it has everything you need and is very convenient After leaving the airport, it only takes 20 minutes by bus to reach the center of Cheongju. Compared to the pace of Seoul, this place is more like a warm small town, suitable for you who want to get away from the crowds and travel in depth. If you also want to try a different Korean route, I highly recommend starting from Cheongju Airport. It’s an unpopular route but full of surprises! #Korea's niche airport #Cheongju Airport #Korea Free Travel #Local Travel #Airport Adventure ##Airport Food #Korea Travel Notes #Korea Central Travel #Korea Unpopular Recommendations #Chungcheongbuk-do Attractions #Travel without Looking Back #Korea Girls Travel #MarchGoodPlaces2025

In the summer of 2023, AERO-K will operate between Narita Airport and Cheongju International Airport. Here is the travel from Cheongju International Airport to Seoul that I used this time. After arriving at Cheongju International Airport, I quickly exchanged about 5,000 yen at a bank booth in the airport. When I went outside, there was a bus stop and a red bus with the sign 747 was parked there. Perhaps because Cheongju International Airport is also a military airport, there was not much information about it, so I found the red 747 bus that I had gathered information about before leaving and got on. My destination was Osung Station to board the KTX to Seoul. I asked the driver, "Are you going to Osung?" and I didn't quite hear him, but he nodded, so I got on. The Tmoney card I had before had insufficient funds, so I paid with cash. The exchange rate was high, but it was necessary to exchange money. It took about 40 minutes to arrive at Osung Station. Before that, there are bus stops with names such as Osung something, Osung this, and Osung that, but Osung Station is a large station, so don't get off until you enter the bus terminal in front of the large concrete-colored building! Then, take the escalator to the second floor. There is a food court and ticket counter on the second floor, and the platform is on the third floor. If you are heading to Seoul, I recommend either Seoul Station or Yongsan Station. And be careful! KTX is always crowded. I recommend that you make a reservation with a certain amount of time in mind. You can make a reservation here on Trip. I underestimated the crowds, so after arriving at Osung Station around 5pm, I was told that there were no seats available for Seoul Station until 8pm, so I spent the time inside Osung Station, where there are no tourist attractions nearby. But in the end, while waiting, I changed to a ticket for Yongsan Station, looking at the real-time seat availability information. The counter staff only look at Seoul Station when you say Seoul Station. They don't give you any clever advice like, "Wouldn't Yongsan Station be okay?" so tell them whichever station you can get on at first at Seoul Station or Yongsan Station. I was able to use a credit card issued in Japan. (They said it was hard to read, though...) After arriving at Yongsan Station, I charged my namene card and took a train in Seoul to the hotel. #Cheongju #Cheongju International Airport #ktx #오송 #Cheongju Intercity Bus Terminal #Yongsan #Korea

Buttercasting is famous for its salt bread, but I felt like it was a cafe with really good branding. The interior of the cafe was very clean, and the logo design and milk tea label design stood out. Since it is the second cafe of the famous Chuckle Macaron in Cheongju, I feel more trustworthy. It was a great time to taste high-quality desserts with a pretty interior. Address: 17-1 Daeseong-ro 122beon-gil, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do Key Point: Salt Bread!!! Average Price Per Person: 2,800 (based on Salt Bread) Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Hot Place #Couples #Cheongju Hot Place #Date Course #Cafe Recommendation

Cheongju international airport is good place for travelers. So cheap to many destinations

#AprilTravelSupport One of the things that many people in Cheongju don't know That there are trains as well as buses to Daejeon There is one every hour, so you can use it conveniently if you time it right And the price is very cheap, so I recommend it to those who want to save money We, who travel by backpack, use it often.

This one was shared by blogger Ryan's flight tickets and accommodation Xiaoroujiao Very close to the accommodation We ordered the regular size hangover soup There are three pieces of bone-in ribs, and the soup is salty, fragrant and slightly spicy The taste is different from the sweet and salty stewed pork ribs in Daegu, but they both go well with rice. The side dishes are radish and pickled squid, both of which are salty and spicy Plus the soup is also very strong, so we ate less side dishes. I couldn't help but drink the soup, it was so delicious! I would like to come to Cheongju again just for this hangover soup It is really suitable as the first stop to wake up the brain on a red-eye flight👍 💰Average consumption: ₩11000 📍Address: Anyang Sirloin Hangover Soup (안양등심해장국) 🕰️Business hours: Tuesday to Sunday: 9~22:00 (Open until 3:00 pm on Monday) 🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: The location is large and comfortable, and the people who eat there are all locals, so you can get closer to the lives of Koreans 💞Recommendation reason: Cheap and delicious, very close to the city 🗓️Itinerary: It is recommended to go to the sauna to rest after the red-eye flight arrives, and then go to eat at around 10 or 11 o'clock, when there are fewer people. #KoreanFoodSharing #Cheongju #RedEyeFlight #FoodPromotion #Must-eatKoreanStores

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 Cheongju Airport Korea 🇰🇷

#JapanFlightEvent #OverseasTravel Cheongju International Airport is a frequently used airport when traveling to nearby Asia. It is not very large, so there is no difficulty in going through the procedures or finding luggage. However, it is equipped with convenience facilities such as convenience stores and restaurants, so it is definitely a place with no shortcomings.

I unexpectedly found it very cheap to fly from Taipei to Qingzhou😻 And the entry speed into Korea is super fast! (Very satisfied) The airport currency exchange service will not start until 6 o'clock *Because this is not a big or major airport, there are relatively few taxis around. You may have an APP to call a taxi, otherwise you can only take the bus to other places* *Want to go to Seoul early* You can take a bus to Cheongju Bus Terminal It’s next to Dacheng High School! There is a bus service that leaves at 6:00 to go to Seoul Express Bus Terminal (you can book the bus ticket in advance on Klook) Directions to Seoul: 1. Cheongsu Airport 2. Take a taxi or bus to *There are three bus stations in Cheongju, North Cheongju, Cheongju University, and Cheongju Terminal* 3. Buy a passenger ticket (you can buy it yourself if you have a machine) 4. Get off at Seoul Nambu Bus Terminal (subway name: Seoul Nambu Station) or Seoul Express Bus Terminal In addition, Klook tickets require you to confirm the boarding and alighting addresses. The safest way is to buy the tickets yourself at the bus stop you arrive at! 6/1 As soon as I came out at 5:50, I went to exchange Korean won at 6 o'clock. After exchanging, I met a taxi right at the door, so I bought a ticket to Seoul at 6:30 at the bus terminal! But it is still recommended to book the passenger tickets first to avoid being left with no tickets because all are booked out! The ticket sales I saw on that day were 6:30. There were about 3 tickets left at 7:00, and all other times were sold out, so it is recommended to book tickets on klook first! I was in Gangnam at about 7:50, and it was very convenient to go to any subway line from the express bus station! Recommended to buy Cheongju to Seoul👍

Cheongju is a thousand-year-old capital city, and is known as the "Cultural Capital of East Asia". It is an important inland transportation hub in South Korea. Many important railways and highways converge here. It is the best transfer point to other parts of South Korea. ⋯⋯⋯⋯ Cheongju International Airport was originally a military airport, but was converted into a joint military and civil airport in 1984. The original name was "Yangyang Airport", and it was renamed "Cheongju International Airport" in April 1997. It is the most comprehensive central airport in central South Korea. The airport is not big and has regional functions. It takes less than half an hour from getting off the plane to going through customs. There are convenience stores, snack restaurants, cafes, etc. in the airport. 1F emart (~21:00) 2F CU (~22:00) 2F restaurant (~20:30) ⋯⋯⋯⋯ You can directly transfer to the intercity bus from here, to Seoul, Daejeon, Cheonan, Incheon, Chungju. You can also take a bus directly to the city or transfer to KTX: Bus 747 (Osong Station) Bus 757 (Osong Station, Sejong City) Bus 407 (Sangdang Park, City) Tips: The passenger service center in the airport has very complete information, fluent English, and there are people who speak Chinese from time to time.

There is a place to eat at Cheongju Airport called Playbo~ It is located on the 2nd floor, and you can order at the kiosk and get your number when it comes up. There are many menus, so it was easy to choose! There were also a lot of seats, so I was able to eat right away! It is good because it is close to the departure hall~ #New York flight ticket event #Cheongju airport #Cheongju

Cheongju Airport is a small but full-fledged airport! It's great that international flights are increasing, and Jeju Island is only 50 minutes away, so it's convenient. It's located in the central region, so it's good for Daejeon, Chungbuk, Chungnam, southern Gyeonggi-do, Gyeongbuk, and Jeonbuk. The parking fee is also up to 10,000 won per day, so it seems cheap?

I found a cheap ticket from Kansai Airport to Cheongju, so I decided to go to Seoul via Cheongju Airport for the first time. Cheongju International Airport was surprisingly compact, and it took only about 10 minutes to get outside after getting off the plane (without checked baggage). From here, I took an express bus to Seoul. Since it was the weekend, I was glad I bought the ticket in advance! It was fully booked on the day. There was a bit of traffic, so it took about an hour and a half to get to the Seoul Express Bus Terminal, but the comfortable seats allowed me to sleep during the trip, making it very easy and comfortable. This time, I also considered taking the train, but since it takes 10 minutes to walk from the airport to the station, I chose the bus. I had some waiting time at the airport, so I went to see the station. It had the atmosphere of an unmanned station that you see in dramas, and I took a picture as a train arrived. If I have the chance, I would like to stay in Cheongju next time.

#AirportTrip First time at Narita Airport Terminal 3 First time at AeroK and Cheongju Airport. ・ AeroK is not friendly to Japanese people, and you can't use foreign cards to pay for tickets, and even if you try to add the weight of your suitcase, you end up having to do it over the phone, and it was a big hurdle. ・ On the plane, a Japanese-Korean couple seemed to be visiting their hometown with their 2-year-old son for the first time in a while, and it was nice to see the boy enjoying the plane itself. ・ And we were able to get out of Cheongju Airport in no time, and there was no hassle getting in like at Incheon or Gimpo. Cheongju Airport is also used by the Air Force, so there was a sign saying no photography was allowed. ・ Cheongju International Airport Korean: 청주국제공항, English: Cheongju Airport A shared airport in Naesu-eup, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea. It is located in Cheongju, the capital of North Chungcheong Province, and is about 45 km from Daejeon Metropolitan City. Low-cost airline Aero K uses the airport as its hub.
