O’Hare International Airport (ORD) is Chicago’s primary international hub and a major connecting point for full-service carriers as well as many global airlines; it typically sees competitive fares but can be pricier during peak travel. Located about 17 miles northwest of downtown, O’Hare is usually reachable by the CTA Blue Line in roughly 40–50 minutes for a modest fare, or by taxi/rideshare in 30–60 minutes depending on traffic for a higher cost. The airport offers extensive amenities and multiple terminals, which can make connections convenient but walking and transfers may be lengthy. Pros: wide route network and frequent ground links. Cons: busy terminals and potential delays at peak times. Midway International Airport (MDW) serves as Chicago’s more compact, budget-friendly option and is often favored by low-cost and domestic carriers; fares can be relatively economical for short-haul flights. Positioned about 10 miles southwest of the Loop, Midway is typically a 20–30 minute trip on the CTA Orange Line for an affordable fare, while taxis and rideshares usually take 25–45 minutes depending on traffic. The airport’s smaller size generally means quicker check-ins and shorter walking distances, though fewer international connections and limited nonstop long-haul options can be a drawback. Pros: convenience and lower crowding. Cons: smaller route network and less premium service.
Beijing Capital International (PEK) is the city’s main international hub and a major transfer point for long-haul and regional carriers, including national flag-carrier and many full-service airlines. Located about 25–30 km northeast of central Beijing, it’s typically 40–60 minutes by expressway or 30–45 minutes on the Airport Express + metro (fares can range from modest metro rates to higher taxi fares). Frequent ground options include the Airport Express train, airport shuttles, taxis and app-based rides; travel times vary with traffic. Pros: wide range of services, many international connections and lounges. Cons: can be crowded at peak times and passport-control queues can be long. Beijing Daxing International (PKX) is a newer, large-scale international airport positioned as a complementary mega-hub for both full-service and low-cost carriers, often used for international long-haul and domestic routes. It sits roughly 45–50 km south of the city center; typical journey times are 40–60 minutes by high-speed airport express train or 60–90 minutes by road depending on traffic, with fares ranging from affordable rail tickets to higher taxi/ride-hail costs. Pros: modern facilities, efficient transfer options and spacious terminals. Cons: greater distance to the city and occasional added travel time for some connections.
