Abu Dhabi International (AUH) serves as the emirate’s main international gateway and typically operates as a full-service hub, with Etihad Airways and other Gulf carriers offering extensive long-haul and regional connections. Fares can be competitive on major routes but may be perceived as pricier than nearby secondary airports for budget travelers. The airport lies about 30–40 km from downtown Abu Dhabi; taxis usually take 25–45 minutes depending on traffic and cost roughly AED 60–120, while airport buses are cheaper (about AED 2–8) but slower, taking up to an hour. Pros: modern facilities, good transfer options and extensive lounges. Cons: distance from the city center and occasional congestion at peak times.
Beijing is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Beijing Capital International (PEK) is the long-established international hub handling most full-service carriers and many intercontinental flights; it’s about 25–30 km northeast of the city center and reachable by Airport Express (35–45 minutes, moderate fares), express buses (45–90 minutes, economical) or taxi (40–60 minutes, higher fares). Beijing Daxing International (PKX), opened more recently, is a large modern hub that often hosts both full-service and growing low-cost operations; it lies roughly 45–50 km south and typically takes 45–75 minutes by dedicated rail or coach, or longer by road. PEK can be more convenient for northern districts; PKX may offer newer facilities but can mean longer transfers. Choose based on airline and final destination within Beijing.
