In our third trip to the Philippines, this time we traveled with Asiana Airlines. As we were flying with Asiana airlines for the first time, we had a transfer of more than 10 hours for the first time.
We had transfers in many countries of the world, but we had never experienced such a long stopover.. Based on our experience, we previously published an article called Ways to Spend Time at the Airport.. But this time, it was a very different experience for us.
We flew to South Korea’s Incheon Airport before Istanbul.. After 12 hours of waiting here, we continued to Cebu Mactan Airport in the Philippines with Asiana Airlines.
What we want to tell you is Incheon Airport and what it offers to its guests. services.
Incheon Airport offers for transit passengers;
Shower : It serves every day between 07:00 and 21:30, and everything has been thought for the comfort of the passengers, from towels, shampoo, toothbrush, blow dryer.. The attendant at the door is waiting to serve you with all his warm blood.. We did not use this service, but we shot a short video for you.
Passenger Terminal 4F
Internet : An ideal section designed to spend your time away from the noise in a beautifully decorated hall with 12 computers in total.. You can kill a lot of time as it provides 24-hour service.
Passenger Terminal 4F
Seats : These seats are designed to relax and sleep.. You can either lie down and watch the passengers or lie down and sleep as all the seats are lined up behind the glass partition.. It is a section open for 24 hours.
Passenger Terminal 4F
Children’s Area : We can say that it is the most ideal section for passengers with children.. Located right next to the seats. While your child is having fun with toys here, you can relax in a chair.. You keep your eyes on your child because they are side by side in both areas.. It is a section open to service 24 hours a day.
Passenger Terminal 4F

The event that we liked the most was the Korea Transit Tour, which Incheon airport provided free of charge to transit passengers.. There are seven options in total, so you can choose whichever suits your waiting time.. Before we left, we wrote our ticket numbers for the 3.5-hour tour from the official website of Incheon airport and made our reservation.. After arriving at the airport, we went to the Transit Tour section and marked our name on the list, but when the officer said you have time, take the 5-hour tour, we didn’t say no.. And when our time came, we had a nice tour of Korea with about 15 people accompanied by a guide.. Since our trip was to the Philippines, we did not take coats etc.. But Incheon even thought of that. Each tour bus had enough inflatable jackets for the guests.. It really worked for us, but when we arrived in the Philippines, we couldn’t get out of bed for a week.. Now we don’t know if it’s the weather change or the virus we got from the coats ?
