Osaka is served primarily by two airports: Kansai International (KIX) and Osaka Itami (ITM). Kansai is the region’s international hub, handling most long-haul and low-cost carrier services alongside full-service airlines; it sits on an artificial island about 50–60 km from central Osaka and can be reached in roughly 35–70 minutes by the limited express or airport rapid trains, with fares typically ranging from moderate to premium depending on service. Itami is primarily a domestic/regional airport nearer the city (around 10–15 km), popular with business travelers and domestic carriers and usually offering quicker transfers by bus or monorail within 20–30 minutes at lower fares. Pros: KIX offers broad international connectivity and modern facilities; ITM is convenient for domestic trips and shorter ground times. Cons: KIX transfers can be longer and slightly more expensive; ITM has limited international options.
Busan is served primarily by Gimhae International Airport (PUS), a regional gateway that handles a mix of domestic flights and a growing number of short-haul international services to Northeast Asia. Low-cost carriers commonly operate here alongside full-service Korean and regional airlines, so fares can be competitive compared with Seoul’s airports. The airport sits about 15–20 km west of central Busan; rapid transit via the Busan Metro and light rail typically takes around 30–50 minutes, while taxis or airport limousines are nearer 30–45 minutes depending on traffic — expect modest transport fares for public options and higher taxi fares. Pros: generally convenient for city access and budget travel; cons: smaller international connectivity and occasional peak-period crowds.
