Detroit is served mainly by Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW), a large international hub that handles most long-haul and connecting flights and is a focus city for legacy carriers; Willow Run (YIP) and Detroit City (DET) can host regional or charter services and lower-cost options at times. DTW sits about 20 miles (roughly 30–40 minutes) southwest of downtown Detroit; available transfers include the airport shuttle and regional buses, taxis and app rides (fares typically range from moderate to premium depending on service), plus rental cars. Pros: comprehensive amenities, many nonstop routes and strong connection options. Cons: it can be spread-out and busy during peak periods, so transfers and security lines may take extra time.

Dubai is served mainly by two airports with very different roles. Dubai International (DXB) is a major global hub handling most international and long-haul flights, and it typically hosts full-service carriers such as Emirates and a range of legacy and international airlines; it can be pricier on some routes but often offers extensive connectivity. Al Maktoum International (DWC) is positioned as a growing, budget- and cargo-friendly alternative that usually handles low-cost and charter services. DXB sits about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai, reachable by Dubai Metro, taxis and buses in roughly 15–30 minutes (metro fares and short taxi trips vary); DWC is farther out, around 40–70 km, with shuttle buses, taxis and occasional rail links taking 40–60+ minutes and costing more. DXB’s strengths are convenience, amenities and fast international connections, while DWC can be quieter and cheaper for budget-focused travelers but less central and with fewer transfer options.
