Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) serves as the city’s primary international hub and a major gateway for long-haul and intercontinental flights, often hosting flag carriers and full-service international airlines. It lies about 25–30 km northeast of central Beijing, with travel times typically 40–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; the airport express train can take about 20–30 minutes to Dongzhimen with fares usually in the low single-digit USD equivalent. Pros: extensive lounges, many transfer options and frequent long-haul schedules. Cons: can be crowded during peak seasons and security or immigration queues may be lengthy. Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) is a newer, large-scale international airport positioned to relieve capacity and serve both international and domestic routes; it tends to attract a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers depending on route. Located roughly 45–50 km south of the city center, travel time to downtown is commonly 40–60 minutes by express train or 45–90 minutes by road, with rail fares typically moderate and airport taxi rides costing more. Pros: modern facilities, streamlined transfers and spacious terminals. Cons: longer road distances for some areas and occasionally higher transfer times between terminals. Beijing Nanyuan (now mostly closed to commercial traffic) historically functioned as a secondary airport with a focus on domestic and military/charter operations; it could be a budget-friendly option for short-haul flights when available. It was situated around 13–15 km south of central Beijing, making taxi or public bus trips relatively quick — often 20–40 minutes depending on traffic — and usually inexpensive. Pros: proximity to the city and simpler layouts. Cons: limited commercial services, fewer lounges and constrained onward connections compared with the larger international airports.

Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) serves as Bangkok’s primary international gateway and full‑service hub, handling most long‑haul and full‑service carriers as well as many regional flights. Located about 30–35 km east of the city center, it’s typically reached by Airport Rail Link (30–45 minutes, moderate fares), taxis (40–60 minutes depending on traffic, metered fares plus possible tolls), and organized shuttles. The terminal is usually spacious with wide service options and lounges, making it convenient for transfers, though journeys can be longer in peak traffic and crowds can be considerable. Suvarnabhumi is often seen as more premium and well‑connected compared with alternative airports. Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) functions largely as Bangkok’s budget and domestic gateway, with a strong profile of low‑cost carriers and short‑haul routes. It sits roughly 20–25 km north of central Bangkok and can be reached by local buses, commuter trains and taxis (30–50 minutes typical, fares generally lower than from the main airport). Ground transport tends to be simpler and cheaper, though facilities are more basic and terminals can be busier at peak low‑cost times. Don Mueang is usually favoured for lower fares and quick turnarounds but can be less comfortable for long connections than the main international airport.
