Chennai’s main gateway is Chennai International Airport (MAA), a major South Indian international hub that handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines on routes across Asia, the Middle East and domestic India. It’s located about 7–12 km from the city centre, with travel times typically ranging from 20–45 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and app cabs are the most common option, while prepaid airport taxis and occasional city buses offer cheaper alternatives (fares can vary by route and time). The airport offers modern terminals and decent connectivity, but peak-hour road congestion and occasional queueing at immigration can affect convenience. For budget-sensitive travelers, modestly priced regional airports are limited, so MAA is usually the primary choice.
Sharjah International (SHJ) functions as a major UAE gateway with a strong focus on regional and low-cost carriers, often serving budget-conscious travelers and cargo operators more than premium long-haul traffic. It’s about 20–25 km northeast of downtown Sharjah and roughly 15–20 km from central Dubai, so transfers to either city can be practical. Public buses and shared shuttles typically take 30–45 minutes to Sharjah centre, while taxis reach Dubai in 25–45 minutes depending on traffic; fares can vary widely but expect economical public-transport rates and mid-range taxi costs. Pros: often lower fares and fewer crowds than nearby Dubai airports. Cons: fewer direct long-haul options and longer transfers for some destinations.
