Harbin Taiping International Airport (HRB) serves as the main international and domestic gateway for Heilongjiang province, typically handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional/budget airlines. It can be seen as Harbin’s primary hub for flights to Beijing, Shanghai, and nearby Russian cities, with fares that are often competitive compared with smaller regional airports. The airport sits about 37 km (roughly 45–60 minutes by car) northeast of downtown Harbin; taxi rides typically cost in the mid-range for China, while airport shuttle buses and occasional airport express services can be cheaper but slower. Pros: relatively modern terminal with international facilities and winter-ready services; cons: distance from city center and variable traffic can add time in peak periods.

Xi’an is served mainly by Xi’an Xianyang International Airport (XIY), the region’s principal international hub that handles a mix of full-service carriers and Chinese low-cost airlines, plus some regional connections. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the city center, travel to downtown typically takes 35–60 minutes by express train or 45–70 minutes by road depending on traffic; fares are commonly in the range of a few yuan for the train and modest for taxis or ride-hailing. XIY is usually positioned as a comprehensive gateway for long-haul and domestic flights, so it can be competitively priced but varies with season. Pros: extensive route network and decent ground transport links; cons: distance from central Xi’an and occasional congestion during peak travel periods. For domestic and charter traffic, Xi’an also sees operations at smaller satellite fields or military-adjacent facilities from time to time, often used for specific carriers or seasonal services. These sites typically cater to budget carriers or special flights, and can be closer to suburban areas but may offer more limited public transport options and fewer passenger amenities. Transfer times and fares can vary widely depending on which facility is used, so travelers often weigh convenience against schedule and price. Pros: sometimes cheaper or faster for particular routes; cons: limited services and less frequent public transit connections.
