Flight Deals from Yanji to Seoul from $85

The flight from Yanji to Seoul is about 410 miles. A typical nonstop flight takes about 2 hours 30 minutes, while the return leg is about 2 hours 25 minutes.

Methodology

Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Direct flights from Yanji to Seoul operate daily, with Air China, China Southern Airlines, Asiana Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, and Korean Air each flying nonstop every day. Jeju Air also flies the route nonstop six days a week, Monday and Wednesday through Sunday. In total there are up to 41 nonstop flights per week across these six carriers.

Methodology

Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

Flying into Seoul Incheon, you have four solid ways into the city: the AREX express train, the all-stop commuter train, airport limousine buses, and taxis. The AREX express is the fastest, reaching Seoul Station in about 43 minutes from Terminal 1 for ₩13,000, while the all-stop train takes 59–66 minutes and costs only ₩4,150–4,750. Most travelers default to the AREX rail service for its speed and reliability, though limousine buses (₩16,000–17,000) are preferred when you have heavy luggage and want a direct hotel drop-off. Taxis run ₩47,000–66,000 including tolls and take 60–100 minutes depending on traffic, with designated international taxi options available for foreign visitors.

No overnight or red-eye flights operate from Yanji to Seoul — there are no nonstop red-eyes on the route, and no connecting itineraries with an overnight long leg. Every scheduled option on this route lands the same day rather than flying through the night.

Methodology

Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Seoul has two main airports. Incheon is the primary international gateway, located about 48 km west of central Seoul, serving most full-service airlines and long-haul flights. Gimpo is closer to downtown, about 15 km west, and handles mostly domestic routes plus short international flights to nearby cities like Tokyo and Beijing. For Yanji flights, Incheon is the usual arrival point.

Yanji Chaoyangchuan Airport sits about 6 km west of the train station, and taxis are the most popular and fastest way into the city center, with metered fares that are inexpensive and no tipping expected. Ride-share through Didi works well at the airport, with drivers picking up from the parking lot across from the taxi stand. Public buses serve the city efficiently and affordably, with schedules and announcements in both Chinese and Korean, and an electronic bus card can be loaded through Alipay. Driving and parking are possible, though taxis and Didi are the most convenient for most travelers.

Methodology

Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.
