Beijing is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Beijing Capital (PEK) is the long-established international hub handling most full-service carriers and intercontinental flights; it’s located about 25–30 km northeast of the city center and typically takes 40–60 minutes by express train or 45–90 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares usually higher for taxis and moderate for airport express/train tickets. Beijing Daxing (PKX) opened as a modern, high-capacity gateway that often hosts both legacy and low-cost services, sitting roughly 45–50 km south of central Beijing; travelers can expect 40–60 minutes by high-speed shuttle or 60–90 minutes by taxi, with fares that can be similar to or slightly higher than PEK due to distance. Both airports offer a mix of ground transport including airport express trains, intercity rail, buses and app-based ride services; PEK is generally more convenient for northern urban districts while Daxing can be more modern and spacious but may add transfer time for some itineraries.

Vienna International Airport (VIE) is Austria’s main international gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub for legacy carriers and many intercontinental services, while low-cost airlines also operate several routes. Located about 18 km southeast of the city center, transfers commonly take 15–25 minutes by City Airport Train or Railjet (fare ranges roughly €3–€14 depending on ticket type) and around 20–40 minutes by taxi or rideshare with variable fares. Public buses run cheaper but can be slower in peak hours. The airport is usually comfortable and well-equipped with lounges, shops and connections, though it can feel busy during peak travel periods; proximity and fast rail links make it convenient for most travelers, while budget-seekers may pay more attention to low-cost terminals and advance fares.

In different months, ticket prices from Beijing to Vienna vary: minimum — $298 (October 2025), maximum — $439 (January 2026). Typically, the flight costs $350–$698.
