Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s main international and domestic gateway, typically serving full-service carriers and low-cost airlines alike. Located about 7–8 km north of District 1, it can be reached by taxi or ride-hail in roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; metered fares usually fall within a modest local range, while airport buses offer cheaper transfers in about 45–60 minutes. The airport is convenient for most visitors thanks to frequent connections and multiple terminals, though traffic congestion and occasional crowds can affect comfort and transfer speed. Overall it balances broad route coverage with urban accessibility. Can Tho International Airport (VCA), around 170 km southwest of Ho Chi Minh City, functions more as a regional airport linking the Mekong Delta and some domestic points; it’s sometimes used as an alternative for travelers heading to southern provinces. Typical carriers are domestic or regional lines, and fares can be competitive for short hops. Travel from Ho Chi Minh City usually involves a long bus or private transfer of 3–4 hours, or a short domestic flight; ground transport costs vary by service and comfort level. The airport is practical for regional travel but is less convenient for city access compared with Tan Son Nhat.

Dubai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the city’s global hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers such as Emirates and many full-service airlines; it’s typically perceived as mid-to-upper range in price. DXB lies about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai, usually 15–30 minutes by taxi depending on traffic (fares commonly fall in a moderate range) and about 15–25 minutes by Dubai Metro from central stations. Al Maktoum International (DWC) operates more budget and some cargo services and can be a cheaper option for low-cost carriers; it’s around 40–60 km south, often 40–60 minutes by road, with fewer public transport links. Pros: DXB offers extensive connections and amenities; DWC can be quieter and cheaper but may be less convenient for central-city access.
