Beijing is primarily served by two major airports with distinct roles: Beijing Capital (PEK) is the traditional international hub handling most long-haul and premium carriers, while Beijing Daxing (PKX) opened to relieve capacity and often hosts a mix of full-service and growing low-cost routes. Capital lies about 32 km northeast of downtown, typically a 40–60 minute drive depending on traffic; the airport express train takes roughly 20–30 minutes to central stations with fares usually in the low double-digit CNY range. Daxing sits around 46 km south of the city center and can be reached by express train or highway in about 30–50 minutes, with comparable rail fares. Taxis and ride-hailing are widely available at both hubs but can be slower and costlier during peak hours. PEK is convenient for connecting international flights and has extensive ground transport; PKX can be more modern and less crowded for some connections but may feel farther out for downtown access.
Fly nonstop from Beijing to London for the fastest, most convenient way to cross continents—less hassle at transfers and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, direct flights save hours and offer a more comfortable journey from the first boarding to touchdown in the UK, making them ideal for business travelers and holidaymakers alike.
London is served by several airports with distinct roles. Heathrow (LHR) is the city’s primary international hub, typically handling long-haul and premium carriers such as British Airways and major global airlines; it’s about 24 km west of central London with the Heathrow Express taking roughly 15–25 minutes to Paddington (fares usually higher than other options), while the Piccadilly Line and various buses offer cheaper journeys in 45–60 minutes. Gatwick (LGW), south of the city, is a mixed hub for both full-service and leisure carriers including easyJet and British Airways; it’s around 45 km from central London and linked by a 30–40 minute Gatwick Express or slower regional trains. Stansted (STN) and Luton (LTN) lean more toward low-cost and charter airlines and are farther out, typically 35–65 km from the centre; expect coach or slower rail options taking 45–90 minutes at lower fares. London City (LCY) sits close to Canary Wharf and the financial district, offering quick access (about 15–30 minutes by DLR) and mostly business-focused short-haul routes. Pros: wide choice of airlines, frequent connections and many ground-transport options. Cons: variability in transfer times and fares, possible longer transfers from outlying budget airports.
