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.
