London is served by several distinct airports that cater to different needs. Heathrow (LHR) is the main international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers and typically offering higher fares than secondary airports; it sits about 24 km west of central London and is reachable by the Heathrow Express (15–20 minutes, premium fares), the Elizabeth Line (25–35 minutes, standard fares), or Piccadilly Line tube (50–60 minutes, cheapest). Gatwick (LGW) to the south is a large point-to-point and charter gateway used by both full-service and low-cost airlines; it’s roughly 45 km from the center with a 30-minute Gatwick Express or 30–45 minute Thameslink/train options. Stansted (STN) and Luton (LTN) primarily serve budget carriers and can be cheaper but involve longer transfers: Stansted is about 65 km northeast (35–50 minutes by Stansted Express or coach) and Luton about 55 km northwest (25–45 minutes by shuttle train plus transfer or coach). London City (LCY) is a compact business-oriented airport within 11 km of central London, favored by corporate travelers for its proximity and short transfer times (15–25 minutes by DLR/tube) though it typically has a smaller route network and higher per-seat fares. Travel times and ticket costs can vary with traffic and time of day; pros include Heathrow’s extensive connections and London City’s convenience, while trade-offs may be longer road transfers or lower onboard comfort at some budget airports.

Tan Son Nhat International (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s main international gateway and typically serves most full-service and many low-cost carriers, making it the city’s primary hub for long-haul and regional flights. Located about 6–8 km from District 1, travel time to the central business district is usually 20–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; ride-hailing and city buses are common alternatives, with fares typically ranging from low single digits to moderate amounts in USD terms. The airport is convenient for onward connections and offers a wide range of services, but congestion and peak-hour delays can affect comfort and transfer times. For budget-minded travelers, some cheaper domestic services may operate from here alongside premium options. Can Gio/Phuoc Long (planned/smaller secondary airport) — while Tan Son Nhat remains the main hub, plans and proposals for secondary or satellite airports around Ho Chi Minh City can change the local airport landscape. Secondary fields, when in use, are typically aimed at relieving domestic or low-cost traffic and can be positioned farther from the city center (often 30–60+ km), which usually increases travel times to the city and often requires car, shuttle or coach transfers at modest fares. These airports can be cheaper to operate from and may host budget carriers and charter services, but they can be less convenient for short stays due to longer ground transfers and fewer amenities compared with the central international airport.
