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 Fargo
Fargo is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Hector International Airport (FAR), 5 km (3 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,001 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hector International Airport (regional) | FAR | 5 km (3 mi) | 9,001 ft | 902 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 9,665 km (6,006 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
