[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Airport Railroad announced on the 25th that it will resume the operation of the direct train, which was suspended due to the spread of COVID-19, starting from January next year.


The direct train is an express train that only stops at Seoul Station, Incheon Airport Terminal 1 Station, and Incheon Airport Terminal 2 Station, without stopping at intermediate stations. Due to the continued spread of COVID-19 and the inability of overseas arrivals to use the Airport Railroad, the operation has been suspended since April last year.


With the resumption of the direct train operation, the check-in and departure inspection services at Seoul Station's Downtown Airport Terminal will also be provided again.



Considering the COVID-19 situation, the train will be disinfected each time it turns around at Seoul Station, and only window seats will be sold to maintain social distancing among passengers. Complimentary bottled water on board will also not be provided temporarily.
