Dubai is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the main international hub, favored by full-service carriers and many long-haul connections; it’s usually seen as a premium, well-connected gateway about 10–20 km from the city center. Metro, taxis and ride-hailing typically take 15–40 minutes to central areas, with fares varying by mode and time of day. Dubai World Central/Al Maktoum (DWC) is a newer, growing airport positioned for low-cost and cargo operations and can be cheaper on budget routes; it lies significantly further out (around 35–50 km) with transfer times often longer and fewer public transport options. Pros: DXB offers frequent services and rapid links to downtown, while DWC can mean lower fares but may require more time and planning for transfers.
Medan is primarily served by Kualanamu International Airport (KNO), which functions as North Sumatra’s main international and domestic gateway and typically handles both full-service and low-cost carriers. Kualanamu is located about 40–45 km east of downtown Medan; road transfer times can be around 45–75 minutes depending on traffic, with taxis and ride-hailing options commonly used and airport train/shuttle services sometimes available for a quicker connection. Fares are generally perceived as mid-range for the region — airport taxis and ride-hails can be more convenient but cost more than local transport. Pros: modern facilities and regular international links; cons: distance from the city center can mean longer transfers and additional cost.
