Beijing is served mainly by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and the newer Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with the former traditionally acting as the long-established international hub and the latter positioned as a modern, high-capacity gateway. Capital tends to host a broad mix of full-service carriers and many international connections, while Daxing is increasingly used by both legacy and low-cost airlines for domestic and international flights. Capital is about 25–30 km northeast of the city center, typically 30–60 minutes by Airport Express + subway or taxi (fares varying widely depending on route and traffic); Daxing sits roughly 45–55 km south of central Beijing and can take 45–75 minutes by high-speed rail link, express bus or taxi. Expect a range of transport options with public transit usually cheaper and taxis or app-based car services more convenient but subject to longer travel times in peak traffic. Pros: extensive connectivity and modern facilities at both airports; Cons: travel to/from the center can be lengthy and affected by congestion, and navigating two major airports can complicate transfers.

Dubai is served primarily by Dubai International (DXB), a major global hub for full-service carriers and a large proportion of Middle Eastern and long-haul traffic, and by Al Maktoum/Al Maktoum International (DWC), which often handles budget and cargo flights as the secondary airport. DXB sits about 10–15 km from the city centre and is well connected by metro (roughly 10–20 minutes to central areas), taxis and shuttle buses; fares typically range from modest metro fees to mid-range taxi fares depending on distance. DWC is further out (around 50 km) with longer transfers by car or shuttle that can take 40–60+ minutes and may be cheaper on scheduled buses. Pros: DXB is convenient, frequent and offers extensive services; DWC can be quieter and budget-friendly but involves longer ground travel and fewer transfer options.
