Cheap Flights from Dalian to Xian — $79

Dalian is served primarily by Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport (DLC), which functions as the city’s main international and domestic gateway, while smaller regional fields are uncommon. DLC typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-priced depending on route and season. The airport lies about 10–12 km north of downtown Dalian; road transfer by taxi or ride-hail usually takes 25–40 minutes and can be moderately priced, while the airport express bus and local buses take roughly 40–60 minutes at lower fares. Pros: relatively close to the city, modern terminal and international connections; cons: peak-hour road congestion can delay transfers and low-cost flight amenities may be basic.

Xi’an Xianyang International Airport (XIY) is the main international gateway for the Xi’an metropolitan area and typically serves a mix of full‑service carriers and low‑cost airlines operating domestic and regional routes. Located about 40–50 km northwest of downtown Xi’an, transfer into the city can be made by airport shuttle buses (roughly 45–70 minutes depending on traffic), the high‑speed intercity train (about 30–40 minutes), or taxis/private transfers (around 40–60 minutes; fares vary by service). XIY is generally seen as a full‑service hub with modern facilities and a wide route network, though journeys to the center can be longer than at city‑center airports; budget travelers may prefer shuttle services for lower fares, while business travelers often pick taxis or express train for speed and convenience.
