Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) primarily serves as a budget- and regional-focused gateway for the northern UAE, complementing nearby Dubai’s bigger international hubs. It typically handles low-cost carriers, regional airlines and some full-service operators, so fares can often be lower than Dubai but vary by season. The airport sits about 15–25 km from Sharjah city centre and roughly 25–35 km from central Dubai, with taxis taking 20–40 minutes to Sharjah (AED 25–60) and 30–60 minutes to Dubai (AED 60–120); shuttle buses and ride-hailing services are also commonly available at lower or similar rates. Pros: compact terminals and often quicker check-in; Cons: fewer long-haul connections and limited premium lounges compared with larger hubs.
Baghdad International Airport (BGW) is Iraq’s main international gateway and typically functions as the country’s primary hub for both government and commercial traffic rather than a low-cost terminal. It usually hosts a mix of regional and international carriers, with state and Gulf airlines commonly operating scheduled services; fares can be higher than regional secondary airports, especially for last-minute bookings. The airport lies roughly 16–18 km southeast of central Baghdad; travel times by taxi or private car are often 30–60 minutes depending on traffic and security checks, with shared taxis or private transfers typically costing more than local buses. Ground access is mainly by taxi or prearranged transfer, while public bus options can be limited and slower. Pros: direct international connectivity and enhanced security facilities; cons: variable road congestion, occasional delays due to operational procedures, and fewer low-cost carrier options for budget travelers.
