Tokyo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT), located about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo, typically functions as the international long‑haul hub for many full‑service carriers and some low‑cost airlines; trains to the city center usually take 60–90 minutes (Narita Express or Keisei Skyliner) with fares often in the mid‑range for Japan’s rail network. Haneda (HND), much closer at roughly 15–20 km south of downtown, is generally Japan’s primary domestic gateway and increasingly handles international flights; transit options include the Tokyo Monorail or Keikyu Line taking 15–30 minutes with relatively low fares. Narita can be more budget‑friendly for cheaper long‑haul fares but means longer transfers, while Haneda is often more convenient for shorter travel times and late‑night arrivals. Pros: Narita offers broader long‑haul connectivity; Haneda is convenient and modern. Cons: Narita’s distance can be less convenient; Haneda can be busier and pricier for some routes.
Busan is served mainly by Gimhae International Airport (PUS), a regional hub handling a mix of domestic and short-haul international flights; low-cost carriers and full-service Korean airlines both operate frequently. The airport sits west of the city center, roughly 20–30 minutes by car depending on traffic, and is connected via metro (Line 3 transfer options) and airport buses with typical ride times of 40–60 minutes; fares can range from modest local-bus prices to higher express-shuttle rates. Travelers often find Gimhae convenient for quick access to Busan and nearby coastal destinations, though it can feel busy during peak holiday periods and has fewer long-haul options than larger international hubs. Pros: efficient regional links and budget-friendly carrier choice. Cons: limited long-haul connectivity and occasional congestion.
