Phoenix is served primarily by Phoenix Sky Harbor International (PHX), the region’s main international and domestic hub handling legacy carriers and many low-cost airlines, and by Phoenix-Mesa Gateway (AZA), a nearby low-cost-friendly secondary airport. Sky Harbor sits about 3–5 miles east of downtown Tempe/Phoenix and is typically perceived as mid-range to premium for connectivity; light rail, airport shuttles, taxis and rideshares generally take 15–25 minutes to the city center with fare ranges roughly $3–$30 depending on mode. Mesa Gateway lies about 20–25 miles southeast and can be cheaper on budget carriers, with shuttle or rideshare trips often lasting 30–50 minutes. Pros: Sky Harbor offers frequent flights and quick central access; cons: it can be busier and parking more expensive. Mesa Gateway can be an economical option but may add ground travel time.

Dallas is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) is a major international hub and a gateway for both domestic and long-haul flights, commonly used by full-service carriers and alliance partners; fares can feel mid-range to premium depending on routing. It sits about 20–25 miles northwest of downtown Dallas, reachable by rental car or rideshare in roughly 25–40 minutes depending on traffic; DART light rail does not serve DFW directly but shuttle and taxi options are available with typical fares varying by service. Pros: extensive connectivity and amenities; Cons: large terminal complex and longer transfer times. Love Field (DAL) functions as a closer, more domestic- and low-cost-carrier-oriented airport, often favored for short-haul flights with generally competitive prices. Located roughly 6–7 miles northwest of downtown, it’s accessible by DART bus, rideshare or taxi in about 10–20 minutes; fares are typically lower for transfers compared with DFW. Pros: convenience and shorter transfers; Cons: fewer international routes and smaller lounge/retail offerings.
