Dubai is served mainly by Dubai International (DXB) and Al Maktoum International (DWC), each playing different roles. DXB is the city’s primary global hub, handling the bulk of long-haul and premium carriers—Emirates and many full-service international airlines operate large schedules—so it can feel busier and pricier for premium services. DXB sits about 10–15 km from Dubai’s central districts; the metro connects to terminals in roughly 15–25 minutes with fares typically in the low single-digit dirhams, while taxis or ride-hailing take 15–30 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Pros: very frequent international connections and comprehensive passenger amenities; cons: crowds and peak-time congestion.
Al Maktoum International (DWC), located around 35–45 km southwest of downtown, often functions as a secondary and budget-friendly gateway for low-cost and cargo-focused carriers, and it can be a cost-effective alternative for some travelers. Travel to the city center usually takes about 40–60 minutes by car; public bus links and shuttle services are available, though less frequent than DXB connections, with fares commonly modest but variable. Pros: less hectic terminals and potential savings; cons: longer transfer times and fewer airline and ground-transport options compared with Dubai International.
Cochin International Airport (COK) serves Kochi as Kerala’s main international gateway, handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional/budget airlines with frequent Gulf and domestic links. It’s located about 30–35 km northeast of the city centre, so travel times vary: taxis or app cars typically take 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, while airport shuttles and private buses can take slightly longer; fares and shuttle fees are usually modest compared with private transfers. The airport is known for modern facilities and a compact layout that can ease connections, though the longer road distance from central Kochi can mean higher transfer costs and occasional traffic delays during peak hours.
