Located about 6–8 km east of the city centre, it’s typically a quick drive — roughly 15–25 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic — and reachable by well-signposted airport buses with fares usually in the low double-digit NZD range; car rental and on-site parking are also available. The terminal is compact and easy to navigate, making connections straightforward, though peak periods can feel busy and weather can sometimes affect schedules. Overall it balances convenience for city access with limited long-haul options compared with larger international hubs.

Dubai is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the major global hub for long-haul and transfer traffic, favoured by full-service carriers and many connecting flights; it lies about 10–15 km from the city centre, typically a 15–25 minute drive by taxi or 25–45 minutes by metro and bus with fares usually low to moderate. Dubai World Central – Al Maktoum (DWC) is an expanding, lower-cost alternative that handles some budget and cargo services and can be 35–60 km from central Dubai, generally a 30–60 minute drive depending on traffic. DXB tends to feel more convenient for passengers seeking frequent international connections and airport facilities, while DWC can be quieter and cheaper for point-to-point travellers but may require longer transfers and fewer public transport options.
