Dubai is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the region’s main international hub, favored by full-service carriers and Emirates, typically handling most long-haul and premium traffic; fares can be mid-to-high depending on season. DXB sits about 10–15 km from the city centre, accessible by Dubai Metro (roughly 15–25 minutes, low fares), taxis (20–40 minutes, moderate cost) and private transfers. Dubai World Central / Al Maktoum (DWC) is a newer, growing airport positioned for budget and cargo operations, around 40–60 km out; travel can take 40–60+ minutes by road at lower taxi or shuttle costs. Pros: DXB is highly connected and convenient; DWC can be quieter and cheaper but farther from central Dubai.

Lusaka’s main gateway, Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (LUN), serves as Zambia’s principal international hub and usually handles both flagship carriers and regional budget airlines, so fares can range from competitive to premium depending on carrier and routing. The airport lies about 27 km northwest of the city center; road transfers by taxi or ride-hail typically take 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, with fares often varying by operator and vehicle type. There is limited scheduled public transport, and hotel shuttles are common for international connections. Pros: relatively modern facilities and direct regional links. Cons: transfer times can be unpredictable and on-site amenities may be modest outside peak terminals.
