Sanya’s main gateway is Sanya Phoenix International Airport (SYX), a regional international hub that handles a mix of full-service carriers and budget airlines serving domestic routes and seasonal international flights. Fares can be competitive on low-cost carriers but often rise around holiday periods. The airport sits roughly 25–30 km from downtown Sanya; taxis take about 30–45 minutes depending on traffic and typically cost in the mid-range for China, while airport shuttle buses and occasional hotel transfers are cheaper options with longer journey times. Pros: modern terminals and direct links to Hainan’s resorts; cons: distance from the city center and higher fares during peak travel dates.

Tokyo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT) is Tokyo’s primary international gateway located about 60–75 km east of the city center; it typically handles long-haul and full-service carriers and can be relatively cheap for long-haul fares compared with some nearby hubs. Transfer options include the Narita Express or Keisei Skyliner (about 60–90 minutes to central Tokyo), airport limousine buses (75–120 minutes depending on traffic) and taxis (expensive for distance), with fares varying by service. Pros: wide international connectivity and full airport facilities; cons: longer transfer times and extra cost for central transfers. Haneda (HND), closer to central Tokyo at roughly 15–20 km, functions as both a major domestic hub and an increasing international gateway, often favored for shorter transfer times and frequent domestic services by JAL and ANA as well as many international carriers. Transport options are quick — monorail or Keikyu line (15–30 minutes), airport limousine buses (30–60 minutes) and taxis — with fares generally lower than for Narita transfers. Pros: convenience and speed to the city; cons: can be busier for domestic connections and sometimes pricier on certain international trunks.
