Helsinki Airport (HEL) serves as Finland’s main international gateway and a northern European hub for full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so you can expect a mix of premium and budget options. It sits about 20 km north of Helsinki city centre, with the train taking roughly 30–35 minutes and buses or taxis typically 25–40 minutes depending on traffic; expect train fares in the low single-digit euros and bus tickets similarly priced, while taxis can be noticeably pricier. The airport is compact and well-signposted, offering solid passenger amenities and frequent connections, though it can be busy during peak seasons and transfer times can require a short walk between terminals.

Lyon-Saint Exupéry (LYS) serves as the city’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for full-service carriers alongside a growing number of low-cost operators. Located about 20–25 km east of Lyon’s centre, travel time is usually 30–40 minutes by car depending on traffic; the Rhônexpress tram connects downtown to the airport in roughly 30 minutes with fares generally in the low-to-mid single-digit euro range, while taxis or rideshares can be faster but cost more. The airport offers a mix of business-friendly facilities and budget-oriented services — convenient for international connections but can be less handy for quick city access compared with smaller urban airports.
