Taipei is served primarily by Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), the city’s main international gateway and a regional hub for full-service carriers like China Airlines and EVA Air; it typically handles most long-haul and business routes and can be perceived as mid-to-premium in price compared with nearby budget options. Taoyuan lies about 40–45 km west of downtown Taipei; travelers usually take the Taoyuan Airport MRT (35–50 minutes, fares roughly NT$160–180), intercity buses (45–70 minutes, NT$120–200) or taxis (45–60 minutes, higher cost). Pros: modern facilities and broad international connectivity; cons: longer transfer times to the city center. For low-cost and domestic travel, Taipei Songshan Airport (TSA) sits much closer to the city center and often serves short-haul, regional and some domestic routes operated by both full-service and budget carriers; ticket prices can be relatively economical for short hops. Songshan is about 4–5 km from central Taipei, with metro access via Taipei Metro’s Wenhu line (10–15 minutes, fares around NT$20–30), buses (15–30 minutes) and quick taxi rides. Pros: convenient for business travelers and short transfers; cons: limited long-haul options and fewer international routes compared with Taoyuan.
San Francisco International (SFO) is the region’s primary international hub, serving major carriers like United and a wide range of transcontinental and global airlines alongside some low-cost options. Fares from SFO can be mid-to-high relative to smaller regional airports, reflecting its long-haul connectivity. The airport sits about 13 miles south of downtown San Francisco; travel by BART typically takes around 30–40 minutes and can cost roughly in the range of public transit fares, while taxis and rideshares generally take 25–40 minutes depending on traffic and may be notably more expensive. Pros: extensive lounges, many flight options and direct long-haul routes. Cons: can be busy, security lines and transfers may take longer, and ground transport can be affected by peak-hour congestion.
