Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a ride?
We recommend booking your transfer or hourly hire service at least 72 hours in advance. If you don’t have that much time, you can request an urgent transfer — we’ll let you know as soon as possible whether we can confirm it.
What pick-up time should I specify for the transfer?
If your transfer starts from an airport or railway station, please specify your flight or train arrival time as the start of your transfer. This helps the driver organize the meeting more accurately.
If your transfer starts from a hotel to an airport, please indicate the time you wish to be picked up at reception. You’ll need to calculate it yourself, allowing extra time for check-in. We recommend adding about 3 hours before your flight’s departure. For example, if your flight leaves at 14:00 and the trip takes 1 hour, your pick-up time should be 10:00.
How do I know if my order has been accepted?
After submitting your booking, you’ll receive an email with all trip details and your order status as “Waiting”. Once we receive and confirm your payment, the status will change to “Accepted”, and you’ll receive another email confirmation.
If you don’t receive the confirmation email, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
How do I change my booking?
To make changes to your booking, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
Important note: Requests for changes made less than 72 hours before your trip may be declined.
How can I cancel my booking?
You can cancel your booking in two ways:
- Via the booking page on our website — use the cancellation number provided in your booking voucher, at least 72 hours before the trip.
- By contacting our support team if it’s less than 72 hours before your ride.
Important note: In case of urgent cancellation, we may not be able to refund your deposit. The free cancellation period is stated in your confirmation email.
What should I do if my flight is delayed?
If your flight is delayed by less than 30 minutes, the driver will adjust their arrival time automatically.
If the delay is longer, please inform the driver directly (their phone number is in your confirmation voucher) or contact WelcomeTaxi Customer Support at office@welcome.taxi. Please include your order number and the new arrival time.
Important note: The driver may charge an additional fee for extended waiting time.
How will I find my driver?
For airport transfers, if you’ve added the meet-and-greet option to your order, the driver will meet you in the arrivals area — right after passport control and baggage claim. You’ll see a name sign with your first and last names (or custom text, if specified in your booking).
Important note: We strongly recommend adding the meet-and-greet option to your airport transfer booking.
For hotel pickups, the driver will wait for you in the hotel lobby. Detailed meeting instructions and your driver’s contact number are provided in your booking confirmation voucher.
How can I be sure that my driver will pick me up?
WelcomeTaxi guarantees that your driver will do their best to meet you on time.
Both you and the driver will have each other’s phone or WhatsApp number. Please keep your mobile phone switched on at the time of pickup. If you can’t reach the driver, contact our support team immediately.
I can’t find my driver. What should I do?
If you can’t find your driver, please double-check the name signs again — the driver may have missed you in the crowd.
Try calling or messaging the driver via WhatsApp. If there’s no response within the meeting time, contact our support team.
If necessary, go to the airport’s Information Desk to arrange a local taxi to your destination.
Important note: If the driver fails to meet you, we will refund your payment.

Airport Transfers and Chauffeur Service in Seoul
Seoul is the capital of South Korea and one of Asia's largest business, cultural and transport centres. The city combines historic palaces and traditional neighbourhoods with major commercial districts, shopping areas, universities, convention facilities and a vast modern metropolitan region extending well beyond the city boundaries.
WelcomeTaxi provides pre-booked private transfers and chauffeur service in Seoul for individual travellers, families, business visitors and groups. Transportation can be arranged between airports, hotels, private addresses, railway stations, offices, conference venues and destinations outside the city. Booking in advance is particularly convenient when arriving on an international flight, travelling with substantial luggage or following a fixed business schedule.
Seoul Airport Transfers
Seoul is served by two major airports: Incheon International Airport (ICN) and Gimpo International Airport (GMP). Incheon is the principal gateway for most international flights, while Gimpo handles a large number of domestic services as well as selected international routes within East Asia.
Private airport transfers provide direct transportation from either airport to hotels, residences and offices throughout Seoul. Cars, vans and larger vehicles can be arranged according to passenger numbers and luggage requirements.
Pre-booking is particularly useful for families, groups and travellers arriving after long international flights. English-speaking drivers can also make communication easier for visitors travelling to South Korea for the first time.
Incheon International Airport Transfers
Incheon International Airport (ICN) is South Korea's main international aviation hub and the principal airport for most overseas travellers visiting Seoul. It is located west of the capital in Incheon and has excellent road and rail connections with central Seoul.
A private transfer from Incheon Airport provides door-to-door transportation to destinations such as Myeongdong, Jongno, Gangnam, Hongdae, Itaewon, Yeouido and other districts. Instead of changing from the airport railway to the subway or another local service, passengers can travel directly to the entrance of their hotel or residence.
This can be particularly convenient when carrying several bags, travelling with children or staying away from a convenient railway station.
Getting from Incheon Airport to Seoul
The Airport Railroad Express, known as AREX, connects Incheon International Airport with Seoul Station. Express trains provide a non-stop service, while all-stop trains serve intermediate stations including Gimpo Airport, Hongik University and Gongdeok.
Airport limousine buses also operate between Incheon Airport and major districts, hotels and transport hubs throughout Seoul. Public transport is therefore an excellent option for many travellers.
A private airport transfer offers greater door-to-door convenience. Passengers can travel directly from the airport terminal to the exact destination without transferring between trains, buses or taxis after reaching central Seoul.
Gimpo Airport Transfers
Gimpo International Airport (GMP) is located within Seoul and is considerably closer to the city centre than Incheon Airport. It primarily serves domestic flights and selected international routes to nearby Asian destinations.
Gimpo is connected with Seoul by AREX, subway services and buses, making public transport highly convenient. A private transfer can nevertheless be useful for passengers with substantial luggage, larger groups or travellers continuing directly to a hotel, office or another destination without changing transport.
Transfers can also be arranged between Gimpo and Incheon airports for passengers connecting between flights at the two separate airports.
Getting Around Seoul
Seoul has one of the world's most extensive public transportation systems. The subway network covers the city and much of the surrounding metropolitan region, while buses provide dense local and regional connections. Taxis are also widely available.
For many sightseeing journeys, the subway is fast and practical. Private transportation becomes more useful when travelling with luggage, attending several appointments, moving between destinations not conveniently connected by one subway route or following a tightly scheduled itinerary.
Because Seoul covers a very large urban area, journey times can vary significantly depending on traffic and the distance between districts.
Chauffeur Service in Seoul
Hourly chauffeur service is suitable for travellers who need a vehicle for several journeys during the same period. The driver and vehicle can remain available according to the booked schedule for meetings, restaurants, shopping, sightseeing and other appointments.
Business visitors can use chauffeur service for transportation between airports, hotels, offices, conference venues and corporate districts throughout Seoul. Leisure travellers may prefer a private vehicle when combining several attractions or neighbourhoods during the same day.
For families, delegations and groups, vans and larger vehicles can provide coordinated transportation while keeping passengers together throughout the itinerary.
Business Transportation in Seoul
Seoul is one of Asia's major corporate and financial centres. Important business districts include Gangnam, Yeouido, Jongno, Gwanghwamun and areas around major convention and exhibition facilities.
A pre-booked chauffeur can help coordinate airport pickup, hotel transportation and several meetings within the same schedule. Instead of arranging a new taxi for every journey, the vehicle can remain available for the booked period.
Group transportation can also be arranged for conferences, corporate events, exhibitions and visiting delegations.
Transfers to Gangnam
Gangnam is one of Seoul's best-known commercial, shopping and business districts. Located south of the Han River, it contains major offices, hotels, restaurants and entertainment areas.
Private airport transfers can connect both Incheon and Gimpo airports directly with hotels and addresses in Gangnam. Door-to-door transportation can be especially convenient from Incheon, as the journey crosses a substantial part of the metropolitan area.
Hourly chauffeur service is also useful for business travellers with several appointments across Gangnam and neighbouring districts.
Seoul Railway Station Transfers
Seoul Station is one of South Korea's principal railway hubs and serves high-speed KTX trains, conventional rail services, subway lines and the AREX airport railway. Other important stations include Yongsan and Cheongnyangni.
A private transfer can connect railway stations with airports, hotels, private addresses and business locations. This is particularly convenient for travellers with luggage or passengers making a time-sensitive connection between rail and air travel.
When arranging pickup, passengers should provide the exact station because Seoul has several major railway terminals serving different routes.
Regional Transfers from Seoul
Seoul is at the centre of a large metropolitan region extending into Incheon and Gyeonggi Province. Private transfers can be arranged to destinations such as Incheon, Suwon and other regional cities according to operational availability.
A direct vehicle is particularly useful when the final destination is a hotel, business facility or private address away from a major railway station. Passengers can be collected from an airport, Seoul hotel or residence and taken directly to the final destination.
Long-Distance Transfers from Seoul
South Korea has an excellent high-speed rail network, and trains are often the most efficient option for long intercity journeys. Private transfers serve a different purpose when passengers value direct door-to-door transportation, have substantial luggage or need to travel to a destination away from a major railway station.
WelcomeTaxi can arrange long-distance transfers from Seoul according to route and operational availability. For itineraries involving several stops, an hourly or multi-stop chauffeur arrangement may provide greater flexibility than a standard one-way journey.
Why Pre-Book Instead of Taking a Regular Taxi?
Taxis are widely available throughout Seoul and are practical for many short urban journeys. A pre-booked private transfer is more suitable when transportation needs to be confirmed before arrival, when a particular vehicle size is required or when the journey extends beyond the city.
Airport passengers can arrange their pickup and destination before travelling, while groups can reserve sufficient passenger and luggage capacity. For regional journeys, the complete route can be organised in advance rather than arranged after entering a local taxi.
International visitors may also prefer transportation with an English-speaking driver, particularly for airport pickups, business schedules and longer journeys.
Useful Travel Information for Seoul
Travellers should always check the airport code on their ticket. Incheon International Airport (ICN) and Gimpo International Airport (GMP) are separate airports, and travel times to central Seoul differ considerably.
AREX connects both airports with central Seoul. The express service from Incheon Airport reaches Seoul Station in approximately 40 minutes, while the all-stop service takes just under an hour. Airport buses, subway services and taxis provide additional options.
Seoul's public transport network is excellent, so private transfers are most valuable when door-to-door convenience, luggage capacity, group travel, fixed timing or regional transportation is important.
When booking transportation, provide accurate flight or train information, passenger numbers, luggage requirements and the complete destination address so that an appropriate vehicle can be arranged.
Book a Private Transfer in Seoul
WelcomeTaxi offers pre-booked transportation for Incheon and Gimpo Airport arrivals, railway station transfers, business travel, chauffeur hire and regional journeys. Whether you need a direct airport transfer, a vehicle for several hours in Seoul or transportation to another destination in the metropolitan region, your journey can be arranged in advance with a suitable vehicle and professional driver.
