Doha is served primarily by Hamad International Airport (DOH), the city’s modern international hub that typically handles most long-haul and premium carriers, while the smaller Doha International (old airport) is largely replaced for scheduled passenger service. DOH is positioned about 15–20 km southeast of downtown Doha, with the airport metro link and taxis usually taking around 20–30 minutes depending on traffic; fares can range from modest metro tickets to mid-range taxi fares. Major airlines—particularly full-service Gulf carriers and international alliances—operate extensive schedules, though some budget and regional carriers also use the hub. Pros: high levels of comfort, many amenities and good transfer connectivity; cons: larger size can mean longer walking times and transfers may feel brisk during peak periods.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Shanghai Pudong (PVG) is the city’s international hub, typically handling long-haul and intercontinental carriers alongside major Chinese airlines; fares can be mid-to-high compared with domestic services. It lies about 40–50 km east of central Shanghai; high-speed maglev and airport express trains take roughly 30–40 minutes, with fares usually in the moderate range, while taxis can take 45–60 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: fast rail link, wide international connectivity and full-service amenities; cons: distance from downtown and occasional heavy traffic for road transfers. Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) operates mainly as a domestic and regional airport, often favored by budget and business travelers on short-haul routes. Located much closer to the city center—around 10–15 km west—Hongqiao is typically reachable in 20–30 minutes by taxi or 20–30 minutes on metro lines with low to moderate fares. Pros: convenience for city access and frequent domestic connections; cons: fewer long-haul options and potentially higher prices on some business routes.
