Munich Airport (MUC) is Bavaria’s primary international hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and a growing number of low-cost airlines, so fares can range from premium to budget depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 28 km northeast of the city center; the S-Bahn trains (S1/S8) typically take 35–45 minutes and cost roughly the same as a city-zone ticket, while airport buses and taxis can be faster or more direct—expect 30–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic and higher fares. Strengths include modern facilities, clear transfers and extensive international connections; downsides can be longer transfer walks and occasional congestion during peak hours.

Lyon is served primarily by Lyon–Saint-Exupéry (LYS), the city’s international hub located about 25 km east of the center and typically handling most long-haul and flagship carrier connections; it can be reached in roughly 30–40 minutes by Rhônexpress tram (single fares usually in the mid-range) or by car/taxi in around 30–50 minutes depending on traffic. For budget and domestic travelers, Lyon–Bron is a smaller, closer airfield mainly used for regional flights and general aviation, about 10 km from the center with short taxi rides or local bus links. Saint-Exupéry tends to offer more amenities and frequent carrier choices but can be costlier and slightly less convenient for central arrivals, while Bron is handy for quick regional hops though facilities are more limited.
