Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) is the city's main international hub, handling most long-haul and flag-carrier flights as well as many full-service Asian and European airlines. Located about 25–30 km northeast of downtown, it can typically be reached in 30–60 minutes by airport express train or taxi; expect metro/express fares or tickets around low-to-mid single digits to low tens in local currency for rail and moderate taxi fares that vary with traffic. Pros: extensive connections, many facilities and lounges; cons: can be busy and involve long walks or lines at peak times. It's often perceived as mid-to-upper range on price for international services. Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) functions as a major, modern international and long-haul hub built to relieve capacity, hosting a mix of full-service carriers and some low-cost or secondary international routes. Sitting roughly 45–50 km south of the city center, travel by high-speed rail or dedicated shuttle can take about 30–60 minutes; taxi or ride-hail trips are longer and cost more due to distance. Pros: new terminals, efficient layout and modern amenities; cons: greater distance from downtown and sometimes fewer transit choices from certain neighborhoods. Fares and service levels can be competitive, particularly on newer long-haul and some budget services. Beijing Nanyuan (now mostly closed to commercial traffic) and smaller general-aviation fields are typically secondary for charters, private flights or specific domestic carriers rather than regular international schedules. These airfields are usually nearer the city but offer limited passenger services and fewer transport links, so convenience may be offset by restricted flight options. Pros: closer proximity and quicker ground transfers when available; cons: limited facilities, narrow route selection and variable public transport access. Pricing and carrier profiles here can be more niche or specialized compared with Beijing’s main hubs.

Sapporo is served mainly by New Chitose Airport (CTS), the region’s international and domestic hub located about 45–50 km southeast of the city center in Chitose. New Chitose typically handles major carriers like ANA and JAL alongside several low-cost airlines on both domestic and seasonal international routes; fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on carrier and season. Travel to central Sapporo usually takes 35–45 minutes by rapid train (JR Chitose Line) with a one-way fare roughly in the mid single-digit USD equivalent, or about 60–90 minutes by bus with slightly lower fares. The airport is modern and comfortable with extensive shopping and dining, while transfer times and occasional winter weather can add variability to schedules. Sapporo also has Okadama Airport (OKD), a smaller domestic facility located about 6–10 km northeast of central Sapporo. Okadama generally serves regional and commuter flights, often operated by domestic carriers for short hops rather than long-haul services, and is typically perceived as a budget- and convenience-oriented option for nearby destinations. Ground access is fast — roughly 15–30 minutes by taxi or local bus, with modest fares — making it handy for business travelers or quick domestic connections. The downside is limited facilities and fewer flight choices compared with New Chitose, so larger international itineraries usually route through the bigger airport.
