Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport (VNS) serves Varanasi as the city’s main gateway, functioning as a small international and domestic hub with a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers operating regional flights. It’s located roughly 26–30 km northwest of the city center, with road transfers typically taking 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Taxis, app-cabs and prepaid airport taxis are common (fares usually moderate for the distance), while some hotels provide shuttle services. Pros: compact terminal, relatively quick arrival/departure flows and direct connections to several Indian metros; cons: limited late-night options and fewer international routes than larger metros, so fares and schedules can be constrained during peak periods.
Dubai is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is a major international hub and premium gateway, typically handling long-haul and transfer traffic for full-service carriers such as Emirates and many global airlines; fares can be mid-to-high depending on season. It lies about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai; options to the city center include Dubai Metro (around 20–30 minutes), taxis (20–40 minutes) and airport buses (30–60 minutes) with fares typically ranging from modest public-transit rates to higher taxi fees. Pros: frequent connections, extensive facilities, lounges and Duty Free; cons: busy peak periods and longer lines are common. Al Maktoum International (DWC), located roughly 45–55 km from central Dubai, is positioned as a growing, lower-cost and cargo-friendly airport used increasingly by budget and some charter services. Travel to the city is usually by taxi or shuttle (45–70 minutes) and limited public transport; fares can be economical but transfers add time. Pros: quieter terminals and newer infrastructure; cons: fewer international connections and longer ground transfers compared with DXB.
