Jeju International Airport (CJU) is located on Jeju Island in South Korea and serves as a major gateway to the island, especially for domestic flights.

The airport handles a large number of domestic flights from Seoul, Busan, and other Korean cities, as well as some international flights from neighboring countries like China and Japan.

The airport is relatively small but busy, so you can expect crowds, especially during peak travel seasons like summer and holidays.

The airport is about a 30-40 minute drive from Jeju City and major tourist spots, so transportation options like taxis, buses, and car rentals are readily available.

If you're renting a car, it’s advisable to book in advance as cars can run out during peak times.

Jeju’s public transportation system, while functional, may not be as efficient as in larger cities, so renting a car is popular among visitors who want to explore the island freely.

The airport has basic facilities including restaurants, cafes, and duty-free shops, but these are not as extensive as in major international airports.

If you’re looking for a quick meal or some last-minute shopping, the selection should suffice, but options may be more limited late at night or early in the morning.

Most signs and announcements are in both Korean and English, so navigating the airport should be relatively easy for non-Korean speakers. However, it can be helpful to download a translation app just in case you need assistance outside the airport or while using public transportation.

Make sure to arrive early, especially for international flights, as the check-in process can take longer due to crowds, and some airlines may have earlier cut-off times for boarding. Keep in mind that Jeju Airport can get very busy during holidays and weekends, so it’s a good idea to plan your timing accordingly.
