Dubai is served primarily by Dubai International (DXB), a major global hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers, and Dubai World Central / Al Maktoum (DWC), which typically caters to some budget and cargo flights and is expanding its international role. DXB sits about 15–20 km from the city centre and is usually reachable by metro in roughly 20–30 minutes with fares typically in the low single digits (AED), while taxis take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic and can be pricier. DWC is farther out — around 40–50 km — so transfers by bus or taxi can take 45–60+ minutes and may cost more. DXB generally offers wide amenities, frequent connectivity and quick public-transit links, whereas DWC can be quieter and cheaper on some routes but less convenient for short city trips. Both airports can be comfortable, though travelers prioritising minimal transfer time often prefer DXB, while price-sensitive or cargo-linked itineraries may make DWC attractive.

Taipei is served primarily by Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) and the smaller Taipei Songshan Airport (TSA). Taoyuan functions as the main international gateway and hub for full-service carriers, handling most long-haul and regional flights; fares there can be mid-to-high compared with regional budget options. It sits about 40–50 km west of downtown Taipei, reachable by the Taoyuan Airport MRT, express buses, or taxis—journeys typically take 35–60 minutes by rail or 40–70 minutes by road, with fares ranging from modest rail fares to higher taxi fares. Pros: modern facilities, numerous international connections and transfer options; cons: longer transfer time to the city and occasional peak-hour traffic. Songshan Airport is a smaller airport located just 4–6 km northeast of central Taipei and usually handles domestic flights plus short-haul services to select regional destinations. It’s commonly used by business travelers for convenience and by carriers offering frequent regional schedules; ticket prices can be competitive for short hops. Transfer options include the Taipei Metro (MRT), buses and short taxi trips—typically 10–20 minutes and relatively low cost. Pros: proximity to downtown, fast transfers and convenient for quick regional hops; cons: limited route network and fewer amenities than the larger international airport.
