Hasta La Gadget!

After several years of flying around Asia for tourism and business we decided to give our summary of the best airports in the region.

1. Changi International Airport- Singapore

Asia’s most convenient airport; connect to downtown Singapore by MRT or taxi in less than 30 minutes.

An awesome place to stay in transit with plenty of places to eat, chill out and shop with the option of easily exploring the city-state if you have more time. Clean, calm and comfortable with three well designed terminals that let you experience the charms of the Garden City.

Whether or not Singapore was the destination or just a stop over we are always happy to fly in and out of Changi.

2. Incheon International Airport- South Korea

Less than an hour to central Seoul by train, getting to and from Incheon Airport is cheap and easy. Shuttle buses and taxis also provide affordable alternatives.

For those visiting Seoul for business or contacting friends, consider renting a phone from the Airport to use during your trip, prices are very reasonable and it takes no time to apply (took me less than 5 minutes!).

If you have some time, energy and Won to spare, take out your pre-flight stress at the driving range or 72-hole golf course, spin around at the ice rink or catch the latest Korean blockbuster at the CGV movie theatre.

If you’re stuck in transit then also check out the airport sauna and spa; open 24 hours a day where you can forget about your long stop-over and flight delay.

Incheon Airport ensures that any trip to Seoul begins and ends in style.

3. Hong Kong International Airport- China 

Asia’s second most convenient airport; get to central Hong Kong by express train in 25 minutes, alternatively take a shuttle bus or taxi which will deliver you to any destination in the SAR in less than an hour.

The most scenic airport in Asia! Located on Hong Kong’s largest island, Lantau the airport’s location makes take off and landing feel like taking an aerial cruise (just be lucky with the weather).

Lantau Island is also home to the Asia Expo Exhibition Centre,  Hong Kong Disney Land, Tai O fishing village and the Ngong Ping 360 Cable car experience which takes you to the famous Big Buddha statue. These attractions can be easily accessed from the airport and are a great way to spend several hours in transit.

Gateway to China; various buses and ferry routes also connect you easily from the airport to Macau and Mainland China, meaning that you can make Hong Kong part of your greater China experience.

We hope you enjoy flying in and out of these awesome Asian airports as much as we did!
