Nanjing Lukou International Airport (NKG) serves as the city’s main international gateway and a significant hub for eastern China, handling a mix of full-service carriers and several low-cost airlines on domestic and regional routes. Located about 35–45 km southeast of downtown Nanjing, transfer times are typically 30–50 minutes by airport express train or 40–70 minutes by taxi, with fares varying by service and traffic; airport shuttles are a cheaper option for budget-minded travelers. Pros include modern terminals, reliable air links and convenient high-speed rail connections at nearby stations; cons can be longer surface transfers and occasional peak-hour congestion, so allow extra time for connections.
Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the city’s main international hub, favored by full-service carriers like Aeroflot and many SkyTeam partners; it’s usually mid- to upper-range on fare perception. Vnukovo (VKO) often handles a mix of legacy and some low-cost carriers, and can be a budget-friendly option for certain routes. Domodedovo (DME) is commonly used by both full-service and low-cost airlines and can offer competitive fares. All three airports sit 25–45 km from central Moscow; travel times by taxi or rideshare are typically 30–90 minutes depending on traffic, with fares varying widely. Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo are linked to the city by Aeroexpress trains (about 30–45 minutes, moderate fares), while buses and marshrutkas provide cheaper but slower alternatives. Pros: multiple airport choices, frequent international connections, and relatively fast rail links from the bigger hubs. Cons: long distances from the center, traffic variability, and occasional terminal complexity — plan extra time for transfers and peak-hour travel.
