Dresden Airport (DRS) is a compact regional airport serving Saxony as the city’s primary air gateway rather than a major international hub. It typically handles a mix of low-cost carriers and regional airlines alongside a handful of seasonal and charter services to Mediterranean and European destinations. The airport sits about 9 km north of Dresden city centre; travel by S-Bahn takes roughly 20–25 minutes and trams or regional buses around 25–35 minutes, with fares generally modest and comparable to local public-transport prices. Pros include short walking distances, simple connections and lower crowds than larger hubs; cons can be fewer long-haul options and less frequent late-night services.

Barcelona is primarily served by Barcelona–El Prat (BCN), a major international hub handling a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines; it can feel busy during peak travel seasons and typically offers the widest range of long-haul and European connections. The airport sits about 12 km southwest of the city centre; transfer options include the R2 Nord suburban train (≈25–30 minutes), the Aerobus shuttle (≈35 minutes) and taxis or rideshares (≈25–35 minutes), with fares that can vary from modest public-transport fares to mid-range taxi charges. Pros: frequent services, good international connectivity and multiple ground-transport choices. Cons: crowds at peak times and terminals can require extra walking between gates. Barcelona also has Girona–Costa Brava (GRO) and Reus (REU), which are typically used by low-cost carriers and seasonal charters serving budget-conscious travelers or holiday routes. Girona is roughly 90 km northeast of Barcelona and Reus about 100 km to the southwest; transfer options generally include shuttle buses timed with flights (≈75–120 minutes), regional trains or private transfers, with perceived fares that can be lower for promotional flights but add ground transfer costs and time. Pros: cheaper flight options during certain periods and less terminal congestion. Cons: longer, sometimes less convenient transfers to the city and limited off-peak public transport connections.
