Beijing is served mainly by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and the newer Beijing Daxing International (PKX). PEK has long been the city’s primary international hub, typically handling legacy carriers like Air China and many full-service international routes; it tends to be perceived as mid-to-premium in terms of on-ground services. Located about 25 km northeast of the city center, PEK is usually reachable by airport express train (around 30–40 minutes) or taxi (40–60 minutes depending on traffic), with fares varying from modest train tickets to higher taxi costs. Pros: well-established amenities and many onward connections; cons: can be crowded and transfer times across terminals may be long. Daxing (PKX) is positioned as a large modern international hub designed to relieve PEK and often hosts both legacy and low-cost carriers on expanding routes. It lies roughly 45 km south of central Beijing, so travel times can be longer—expect about 40–60 minutes by intercity rail or 50–90 minutes by car depending on traffic; fares for rail are typically affordable while taxis can be pricier. Pros: modern facilities and efficient layouts; cons: greater distance to downtown and transit options can be more limited depending on time of day. Domestic travelers may also encounter smaller regional airports for specific routes, but PEK and PKX are usually the primary gateways for most international and interprovincial flights.

Harbin Taiping International Airport (HRB) serves as the main international gateway for Heilongjiang province and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost domestic routes. It can be seen as an international/regional hub rather than a purely budget facility. The airport lies about 35–40 km southwest of Harbin’s city center; ground transfer options include airport express buses (roughly 45–60 minutes, modest fares), taxis (about 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, mid-range fares), and ride-hailing services. Pros: reasonably frequent flights and straightforward ground links; cons: the distance to downtown can make transfers longer and occasional winter weather can affect schedules. Recent expansions usually improve passenger comfort and amenities.
