Seoul to Phoenix Park for a ski day: which route to book, and what the day costs
Five ways to reach the Pyeongchang slopes compared on time, cost and foreign-card booking, plus a 2025/26 budget for beginners and for non-skiers
Most Seoul-based visitors should book the reseller shuttle bus, because it takes foreign cards and needs no Korean number. Using third-party and earlier-season prices, a beginner's ski day cost roughly 150,000–170,000 won plus transport and lessons.
