Shenzhen is served mainly by Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport (SZX), a growing international and regional hub that typically handles most full-service and low-cost carriers serving mainland China and select international routes. It’s about 32 km northwest of the city center, with travel times to downtown usually ranging from 30–60 minutes by metro (Line 11 and airport express connections) or 40–70 minutes by taxi, fares that can vary widely depending on traffic and time of day. The airport is generally seen as modern and efficient, with a good range of facilities, though transfers to nearby Hong Kong can add complexity; for budget-conscious travelers, coaches and the metro offer the best value, while taxis and ride-hailing are faster but cost more.
Dubai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the city’s major global hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers such as Emirates and many full-service international airlines; it’s typically perceived as mid-to-high priced for lounges and on-site services. Located about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai, DXB is usually reached in 15–30 minutes by taxi (fare ranges widely) or 15–20 minutes by Dubai Metro’s Red Line; airport shuttles and ride-hailing are common. Al Maktoum International (DWC) is a growing, budget- and cargo-friendly option farther out (about 40–60 km), often hosting low-cost and charter flights; transfers can take 45–60+ minutes by road and fares may be lower for discounted bus services. Pros: DXB offers frequent international connections and fast metro access; DWC can be less crowded and cheaper on some routes. Cons: DXB can be busy and pricier for extras, while DWC’s distance means longer transfers and fewer public-transport options.
