Yesaway is the cheapest supplier at Gimpo International Airport for an Intermediate, averaging £58 a day over the last 12 months, but requires a credit card. Hi Rent a Car is next at £60 a day, while Europcar averages £71. All desks sit inside the terminal, so you avoid shuttle transfers regardless of which provider you pick. However, none of the 4 desks accept debit cards for deposits.

The cheapest company can cost you a longer queue or a bigger deposit, so check the review score and desk wait beside each car in the results before you book.

No supplier at Gimpo International Airport currently holds the 30 recent reviews required for an official rating score. Yesaway records an average desk wait of 18 minutes and offers the lowest rates for an Intermediate car at £58 a day. Alamo and Europcar operate desks directly at the terminal alongside Yesaway and Hi Rent a Car, but none have accumulated sufficient verified reviews in the last 5 months. You will need a credit card in the driver's name whichever desk you choose.

Review scores are CarTrawler customers' own, from the last five months; the score and the desk wait sit beside each car in the results.

At Gimpo International Airport, deposits range from £161 with Yesaway and Hi Rent a Car up to £369 with Europcar, and all 4 desks take credit cards only. None of the counters accept a debit card, so bringing a physical credit card in the lead driver's name is mandatory to collect a car. You cannot use a debit card filter to bypass that rule. Any extra charges or mandatory local fees will show under each vehicle listing before you pay.

If you bring your own child seat, check your airline's rules first: most carry one free, some charge.

The biggest trap at Gimpo International Airport is turning up with only a debit card, as all 4 desks take credit cards only. Leave the debit card in your wallet, because no desk on site will release a car without a credit card in the lead driver's name. You will at least avoid bus rides, as all counters sit directly inside the airport building. Just remember that city driving involves dense traffic and tricky turns, so an easy pickup starts at the counter.
