Chennai International Airport (MAA) is the city’s primary international gateway and busiest aviation hub in southern India, handling both long-haul and domestic traffic. Full-service carriers like Air India, Vistara and international airlines operate here alongside several low-cost carriers such as IndiGo, which often schedule the bulk of domestic flights. The airport sits about 15–20 km from Chennai’s city center; road transfers typically take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, while app taxis and prepaid cabs are common (fares can vary widely). Suburban trains and dedicated airport buses provide lower-cost options that usually take 40–70 minutes. Strengths include frequent connections and modern terminals; downsides can be peak-time congestion and variable transfer times.

Bangkok is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Suvarnabhumi (BKK) is the international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it’s located about 30–35 km east of central Bangkok and usually takes 30–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares often ranging from modest metered rates plus expressway tolls to higher fixed-price options. The airport rail link can reach Phaya Thai in roughly 25 minutes for a budget-friendly fare, while airport buses and ride-share services are also common. Pros: modern facilities and broad global connections; cons: can be busy and transit times are sensitive to road congestion. Don Mueang (DMK) typically serves low-cost and regional airlines and sits around 20–25 km north of the city center. Travel times by taxi are often 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, with competitive meter fares; several express buses and ride-hailing options provide economy transfers. As a budget-oriented gateway, Don Mueang can be cheaper on tickets but may feel more basic in amenities compared with the newer international terminal. Both airports are practical for different travel styles: Suvarnabhumi for international connectivity and Don Mueang for value-focused regional travel.
