Chisinau International Airport (KIV) is Moldova’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers connecting the capital with Europe, Russia and regional destinations. Located roughly 10–12 km southeast of the city center, the airport is usually a quick 15–25 minute drive depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hailing apps are common and can be reasonably priced, while public buses and minibuses offer budget options often taking 30–45 minutes for a smaller fare. As the country’s primary hub, facilities are compact and functional—convenient for short transfers but not as extensive as larger European hubs—so expect straightforward processes and occasional crowding during peak periods.
Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the primary international hub, handling long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many international cargo flights; fares there can be mid-to-high compared with regional alternatives. It sits about 30–40 km east of central Shanghai, reachable by the Maglev plus metro (35–50 minutes, higher fares for Maglev), airport express/train or taxis (45–60 minutes, fares higher with tolls). Pros: modern facilities and extensive onward connections; cons: longer transfer times to the city and potentially higher ground-transport costs. Hongqiao (SHA) functions as a domestic and regional gateway favored by budget and business travelers on short-haul routes, often offering lower fares for internal flights. Located roughly 13–15 km west of downtown, Hongqiao is connected by metro lines, airport link and frequent taxis (20–35 minutes by car, metro 25–40 minutes, generally lower fares than PVG). Pros: closer to the city and quicker for transfers; cons: fewer long-haul options and smaller international connectivity.
