Tan Son Nhat (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s main international gateway and typically functions as the region’s full-service hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many low-cost flights. Located about 6–8 km from District 1, journey times to the city center usually range from 20–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; metered taxis and ride-hailing apps are common, with fares often falling in a modest local range, while airport shuttle buses and public buses provide cheaper if slower alternatives. The airport is generally convenient for most travelers thanks to frequent services and proximity, though congestion and peak-hour delays can make transfers less comfortable.

Incheon International Airport (ICN) is Seoul’s main international gateway and a full-service hub that typically handles long-haul and premium carriers alongside major Asian airlines. Located about 48 km west of downtown Seoul, it can be reached in roughly 45–65 minutes by Airport Railroad (AREX) or 50–90 minutes by expressway; fares for the AREX vary by service but usually range from budget commuter to mid-tier for the express line. ICN is known for wide passenger amenities and efficient transfers, making it comfortable for international connections; however, its distance from the city center can add time and cost compared with closer alternatives. Gimpo International Airport (GMP) serves as a mixed domestic and short-haul international airport and is often perceived as more budget-friendly and convenient for regional flights. Situated about 15 km west of central Seoul, travel times are typically 20–40 minutes by subway or 20–45 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; subway fares are usually low-cost while taxis can be moderate. Gimpo is commonly used by low-cost carriers and frequent domestic routes, offering quick access to the city and simpler navigation, though it has fewer long-haul services and smaller transfer facilities than the larger international hub.
