About Korean Air flights from Seoul to Busan
Korean Air operates flights on the Seoul–Busan route, connecting South Korea's capital with its major port city. Passengers can depart from either Gimpo International Airport (GMP) or Incheon International Airport (ICN) in Seoul and arrive at Gimhae International Airport (PUS) in Busan. The distance is 325 kilometers, and flights typically take 70 minutes. Korean Air usually flies this route non-stop, making it convenient for business and leisure travel between these two major cities.
