New York is served by three major airports that play different roles for travelers. John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is the city’s primary international gateway and a hub for long-haul and premium carriers; it’s about 16 miles (25 km) southeast of Manhattan and reachable by AirTrain plus subway or LIRR in roughly 45–70 minutes, with combined fares typically in the range of public-transit prices. LaGuardia (LGA) handles mostly domestic and short-haul flights and is considered more budget- and business-focused; it sits about 8 miles (13 km) from Midtown and can be reached by bus, taxi, or rideshare in around 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, usually at moderate cost. Newark Liberty (EWR), technically in New Jersey, functions as a major international and transcontinental hub for several carriers; it’s about 16–20 miles (25–32 km) from Midtown Manhattan and can be accessed by NJ Transit, Amtrak, or AirTrain with total travel times of about 30–60 minutes and fares reflecting regional rail or transit rates. Pros across the three airports include broad route networks and numerous carrier choices; cons can include variable congestion, possible longer transfer times between terminals, and fares or journey times that depend heavily on time of day and traffic conditions.
Tokyo is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT) is the larger international gateway, typically handling long-haul and many full-service carriers, and can be perceived as more expensive for ancillaries; it sits about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo. Access options include the Narita Express (about 55–65 minutes to Tokyo Station), airport limited express trains (similar times), and highway buses (70–120 minutes depending on traffic); fares typically range from moderate to higher for express trains and lower for buses. Pros: wide international connectivity and good rail links; cons: longer transfer times to central Tokyo. Haneda (HND) is closer and often used for domestic and increasing international flights, with many full-service and low-cost carriers operating; it’s roughly 14–20 km south of central Tokyo. Transport includes the Tokyo Monorail (13–20 minutes to Hamamatsucho), Keikyu Line (15–20 minutes to Shinagawa), and taxis or airport limousines (20–40 minutes), with fares usually lower for rail and higher for taxis. Pros: convenience and shorter travel times to the city; cons: can be busier and sometimes pricier for on-airport services.
