How does the Transit Hotel differ from a standard hotel? A. The Transit Hotel is located inside the airport (Airside). It is the only hotel in Korea that operates on a "6-hour block" rate system, specifically designed for short-term rest during travel. Q. Can I stay at the hotel if I am transferring from an International to a Domestic flight? A. Yes, it is possible. However, procedures may vary, so you must confirm with your airline regarding luggage and transit regulations beforehand. Q. Can I leave the hotel and go outside (exit immigration) during my stay? A. Technically, yes, if you possess a boarding pass for the day of departure. However, you would need to clear immigration to exit and go through security again to return. We strongly recommend against passing through immigration (entering the Landside area) while staying at the hotel to avoid complications and delays. Q. Can I stay at the Transit Hotel before my departure date? A. No. Airline check-in is generally valid only on the day of departure, meaning you cannot access the duty-free area (where the hotel is located) days in advance. You can only stay after you have completed departure procedures and entered the Airside area. Q. Can I retrieve my checked luggage while transferring at Incheon International Airport? A. No. You cannot access checked baggage within the transit area. Your luggage should be checked through from your origin to your final destination. Please confirm specific baggage details with your airline. Q. What facilities are available at the Transit Hotel? A. The hotel offers access to a Lounge (Matina), a Business Center, and Shower Facilities.
