Flights US→Jeju run roughly USD 1,400-2,400 round-trip with a layover in Incheon and a domestic hop to CJU (~18-24h door to door from the West Coast, 22-30h from the East Coast).
Best windows: April-June (mild) and September-October (autumn, no typhoons). Avoid August (heavy rain plus typhoon risk).
Four days split well: north (Jeju City) + west (Aewol) + south (Jungmun) + interior (Hallasan).
Cost for a couple, 4 days on Jeju (excluding international flights): USD 800-1,500 including car rental, mid-range stays and meals.
Renting a car is effectively mandatory (buses exist but burn your day). Driving is on the right.
