Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) is the emirate’s main international gateway and typically operates as a full-service hub for Etihad Airways alongside many global carriers, with a mix of regional and long-haul routes. It can be perceived as mid-to-premium priced compared with budget-focused airports in the region. The airport sits about 30–35 km east of Abu Dhabi city centre; taxi rides usually take 30–45 minutes, while express shuttle buses and ride-hailing services can take a little longer depending on traffic, with fares commonly ranging from modest shuttle fees up to mid-range taxi rates. Pros: modern terminal facilities, good transfer connections and lounges; cons: longer transfer times than more central airports and occasional peak-hour congestion.

KTM can be busy and somewhat congested, with limited lounge space and straightforward facilities, yet it’s convenient for quick access to central Kathmandu. Travelers should expect basic amenities and variable wait times, balanced by short transfer distances to the city.
