Dubai is served primarily by Dubai International (DXB), a major global hub for long-haul and regional carriers—especially Emirates and other full-service airlines—offering extensive international connections and a wide range of premium services. Al Maktoum International (DWC) functions as a newer, lower-cost alternative that can handle charter and budget flights as well as some cargo operations. DXB sits about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai, typically reachable by metro or taxi in 15–30 minutes; fares vary by mode but taxis and app rides are commonly used, while the metro is the most budget-friendly option. DWC is farther out (roughly 40–60 km), so transfers can take 40–60+ minutes and may be pricier or require pre-booked shuttles. DXB’s advantages include abundant amenities and fast international connections, while DWC can be less crowded and cheaper for some routes but less convenient for quick city access.
Arusha Airport (ARK) typically serves regional and domestic flights and can be a practical choice for travelers heading to northern Tanzania’s safari parks. It often hosts regional carriers and smaller commuter airlines rather than large international operators, so fares can be competitive compared with major hubs but may rise during peak safari season. The airport sits roughly 13–16 km from Arusha city centre; road transfers usually take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with shared shuttles, taxis, and private transfers commonly available and fares varying by operator. Pros include quick access to safari departures and a compact, straightforward terminal; cons can be limited flight options, fewer passenger amenities, and occasional waits for connecting ground transport.
