Taipei is served primarily by Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) and Taipei Songshan Airport (TSA). Taoyuan, the main international hub located about 40–50 km west of downtown, usually handles long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many regional low-cost flights; it can be perceived as mid-range to premium for international travel. Transport options include the Taoyuan MRT (approx. 35–50 minutes to central Taipei), airport shuttle buses (40–60 minutes) and taxis (around 35–60 minutes; fares can be notably higher), with travel times and costs varying by traffic. Pros: comprehensive international connections and modern facilities; cons: longer transfer times to the city. Songshan sits much closer, roughly 4–6 km from the city center, and typically acts as a convenient domestic and regional airport favored by business travelers and some full-service airlines. It is often seen as budget-friendly for short hops. Ground options include metro (5–15 minutes), taxis (10–20 minutes) and local buses; fares are usually low and journeys are short. Pros: great convenience and quick access to downtown; cons: limited international routes and smaller terminal capacity.

Tokyo is served by two main airports with different roles. Narita International (NRT) is typically the long-haul international hub located about 60 km east of central Tokyo; it usually hosts major international carriers and can be perceived as pricier for long-distance flights. Travel to the city center commonly takes 60–90 minutes by Narita Express or airport limousine buses, with fares often in the mid-range for rail and slightly higher for direct airport services. Pros: reliable services and extensive international connections; cons: longer transfer times to central Tokyo. Haneda (HND) functions more as a domestic and growing international gateway much closer to downtown, roughly 15–20 km away. It usually carries many domestic and full-service Asian carriers and can be seen as more convenient and sometimes cheaper for short-haul travel. Transport options include the Tokyo Monorail or Keikyu Line—about 15–30 minutes to the city center—with fares typically lower than Narita options. Pros: proximity and fast links; cons: fewer long-haul flight choices compared with Narita.
