London is served by several distinct airports that cater to different traveler needs. Heathrow is the city’s primary international hub and a global transfer point, typically hosting full-service carriers and many long-haul routes; it sits about 23 km west of central London and can be reached by the Heathrow Express (15–25 minutes, higher fares), the Piccadilly Line tube (50–60 minutes, lower fares) or various buses and taxis. Gatwick, around 45 km south, is often positioned as a major alternative for both full-service and low-cost airlines, with a fast rail option to central London of about 30–35 minutes and cheaper regional trains taking longer. Stansted and Luton tend to serve budget and charter carriers and can be more economical for leisure travelers; Stansted is roughly 65 km northeast and usually connects via the Stansted Express (45–50 minutes) or coaches, while Luton lies about 55 km northwest with shuttle buses linking to nearby rail stations (35–50 minutes total). London City Airport, closest at about 11 km east of the center, is geared to business traffic and short-haul European services, often prized for short transfer times (15–25 minutes by DLR or taxi) though it can be pricier. Pros across the network include wide route choice and frequent services; cons can include variable transfer times depending on traffic, premium fares from the fastest options, and the need to pick an airport that best matches your balance of price, journey time and convenience.
Tokyo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT) functions as the primary international gateway for long-haul flights and is typically used by full-service carriers, while Haneda (HND) has increasingly become an international and domestic hub that is often perceived as more convenient for city access. Narita sits about 60–80 km east of central Tokyo; travelers usually take the Narita Express or airport limousine buses (roughly 60–90 minutes, fares commonly range from moderate to higher). Haneda is much closer, around 15–20 km south of downtown; monorail or Keikyu trains typically take 15–30 minutes with lower-to-moderate fares. Pros: Haneda is generally quicker and more comfortable for short transfers, while Narita tends to offer more long-haul connectivity and sometimes lower-cost international options. Cons: Narita’s distance can add time and expense for transfers, and Haneda can be busier and slightly pricier for some carriers.
