Doha’s Hamad International (DOH) is Qatar’s primary international hub and typically handles the bulk of long-haul and transfer traffic, with full-service carriers—especially the national airline—dominant alongside many global partners. It’s located about 15–20 km southeast of the city center; a metered taxi or app ride usually takes 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and can be moderately priced for the region, while the airport metro link offers a quick, budget-friendly option in roughly 20–25 minutes. The airport is generally considered modern and comfortable with extensive facilities for transit passengers, though travel times can increase in peak periods and fares vary by provider.
Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) is Nairobi’s main international gateway and a regional hub for full-service carriers as well as many connecting flights across Africa; it typically handles long-haul and domestic services and can feel busy during peak hours. Wilson Airport (WIL), nearer the city, is primarily a domestic and regional center favored by budget regional carriers, charters and bush-flight operators. NBO lies about 15–20 km southeast of the central business district, with road transfer times usually 30–60 minutes depending on traffic and meter taxis or ride-hailing fares that can vary widely; airport shuttles and private transfers are common. Wilson is roughly 5–8 km from downtown, reachable in 15–30 minutes by taxi or shuttle and often cheaper. Pros: NBO offers comprehensive international connections and larger facilities; Wilson can be quicker for domestic legs and lighter on walking distances. Cons: NBO can be congested and unpredictable at peak times, while Wilson has more limited amenities and fewer long-haul options.
