The airport has several international flight connections from Seoul (Inchon), Shanghai (Pudong), Hong Kong and Taipei (Taoyuan). Since Seoul (Inchon) airport is an airline hub, international flights via Seoul (Inchon) airport are the easiest way to arrive to Okayama airport. After arrival to Okayama airport, you can take a direct bus for Kurashiki, Mizushima and Kojima<\/a> (do NOT take the buses for Okayama station).<\/p>\n

However, the way from the airport to Kurashiki is rather complicated for foreigners (especially for the first-comers).
