Airports at each end
Leaving Seoul
Seoul is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Seoul Gimpo International Airport (GMP), 17 km (11 mi) from the centre, whose 11,811-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Incheon International Airport (ICN, 48 km), Wonju Airport / Hoengseong Air Base (K-38/K-46) (WJU, 88 km).
Arriving in Lethbridge

| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lethbridge County Airport (regional) | YQL | 8 km (5 mi) | 6,500 ft | 3,048 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 8,679 km (5,393 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
