Ho Chi Minh City is served primarily by Tan Son Nhat International (SGN), the country’s busiest international gateway and a hub for full-service carriers like Vietnam Airlines and Vietjet’s international services. Located about 6–8 km north of District 1, the airport is typically 20–45 minutes from the city center by taxi or ride-hail, depending on traffic; fares generally range from moderate to low compared with Western cities. Public options include city buses and airport shuttles taking 45–75 minutes for a lower cost. Pros: close to downtown and well connected with many international and domestic flights. Cons: can be crowded at peak times and road congestion may extend transfer times. Long-haul and low-cost operators sometimes use nearby smaller airports for charter or overflow flights, but Tan Son Nhat remains the main point of entry for most travelers. Domestic routes and budget carriers operate frequent services, making it a practical choice for both short hops and international layovers. Ground transport is varied—metered taxis, app-based cars, shuttle buses, and limited rail connections are typical—so travelers can choose between speed and economy. Overall, expect a busy but convenient airport with good airline choice; travel time variability due to traffic and occasional congestion is a factor to plan for.

Xi’an is primarily served by Xi’an Xianyang International Airport (XIY), the city’s main international and domestic aviation hub that typically handles both full-service carriers like China Eastern and Air China and a growing number of low-cost and regional operators. Located about 40–50 km northwest of downtown, transfer to the city center can take roughly 30–60 minutes by express train or 45–75 minutes by taxi, with fares for public transit generally affordable and taxis costing more depending on time and traffic. The airport is usually well-equipped with lounges and eateries, making it a convenient option for international connections, though its distance from the center can mean longer transfers compared with inner-city airports.
