Riga International Airport (RIX) is Latvia’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for both full-service carriers and a number of low-cost airlines, so fare options can range from budget-friendly to premium. It sits about 10–13 km south of Riga’s Old Town, with travel times usually around 15–25 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public transport includes frequent city buses and shuttle services (roughly 30–40 minutes, low single-digit euro fares), while taxis and app-based rides commonly take less time but cost more. Pros: compact layout, straightforward transfers and seasonal connectivity across Europe. Cons: can feel busy during peak summer months and some long-haul connections may require transfers.
Abu Dhabi International (AUH) functions as the emirate’s main international gateway and a regional hub, handling full-service carriers such as Etihad alongside some international and low-cost operators. It’s located about 30–40 km east of downtown Abu Dhabi, with road transfer times typically around 25–45 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and app-based rides are common and usually the quickest option, while shared shuttles and limited public buses can be cheaper but slower. The airport is generally viewed as a mid- to high-price point for services and transfers compared with smaller regional airports. Pros include modern facilities and frequent long-haul connectivity; cons can be distance from the city center at peak times and occasional queueing at busy periods.
