Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s primary international and domestic gateway, typically handling full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines on regional routes. Located about 6–8 km north of District 1, it’s usually a short 20–40 minute taxi or ride-hail journey depending on traffic; buses and a planned metro link can take longer but are cheaper. Fares to the city center commonly range from modest taxi flags to lower-cost public bus fares. Pros: convenient proximity, frequent flight options and plentiful ground transport; cons: can be busy and subject to peak-time congestion, which may affect transfer times and comfort. Can Gio/Phuoc Long (proposed/secondary) and nearby regional airfields can serve niche or charter operations, but Tan Son Nhat remains the principal airport to consider for most travelers and itineraries.

Rio de Janeiro is served primarily by two commercial airports: Rio de Janeiro–Galeão (GIG) and Santos Dumont (SDU). Galeão (Tom Jobim) is the main international gateway and typically handles long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some low-cost and regional operators; it sits on Governador Island about 20–25 km north of central Rio, with drive times usually 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Transport options include an express bus and airport bus lines, taxis and app rides, and a suburban train link to the city (journeys often 40–60 minutes; fares vary by provider). Pros: comprehensive international connections and full-service facilities; cons: can be farther from downtown and subject to congestion. Santos Dumont is a smaller, centrally located airport focused on domestic and short-haul flights, commonly used by business travelers and regional airlines; it’s just 2–4 km from downtown and reachable by quick taxi or metro-plus-transfer options in roughly 10–20 minutes, generally at lower local fares. Pros: exceptional convenience for city access and picturesque approach; cons: limited long-haul choices and smaller terminals that can feel busier during peak times.
