Doha’s main gateway, Hamad International (DOH), functions as a major international hub and is typically used by full-service carriers and premium connections, though low-cost airlines also operate regional routes. It sits about 15–20 km southeast of the city center; travel time to downtown Doha is usually 20–30 minutes by taxi or ride-share, with fares commonly higher than local buses, while the Doha Metro’s red line offers a faster, usually cheaper option in comparable time. Pros: modern terminals, plenty of lounges and onward connection facilities; cons: airport taxes and transfer times can add cost and duration to itineraries. For budget-conscious travelers, smaller regional airports and bus links around the metropolitan area can sometimes be more economical for short hops.

Jomo Kenyatta International (NBO) is Nairobi’s main international gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub handling most long-haul and regional flights; many carriers including Kenya Airways, British Airways and other global and African airlines operate here. It sits about 15–20 km southeast of the central business district, with travel times usually 25–50 minutes depending on traffic; options include metered taxis, ride-hailing services and shuttle buses, often costing roughly USD 8–20 for standard rides. The airport tends to be pricier for ground transfers but offers greater flight choice and amenities. Downsides can be congestion and variable traffic delays during peak hours. Wilson Airport (WIL) is Nairobi’s smaller domestic and regional airport, commonly used for light aircraft, safari charters and low-cost regional carriers. Located around 6–8 km southwest of the city center, it’s typically a 15–30 minute drive; access is mainly by taxi or pre-arranged transfers and fares are usually modest. Wilson can be very convenient for domestic and bush-bound travellers due to shorter check-in times and quick transfers, though facilities are more basic and it handles fewer scheduled international services. Noise and busy apron activity can be a consideration when planning tight connections.
