Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) is Israel’s primary international gateway and typically functions as the region’s major full-service hub, handling most long-haul and many regional flights operated by flag carriers and full-service European and Middle Eastern airlines; low-cost carriers also serve selected routes. Located about 20–25 km southeast of central Tel Aviv-Yafo, transfer times to the city center are usually 20–30 minutes by fast rail (trains run frequently) or 25–45 minutes by taxi, with taxi fares generally higher and ride-hailing similarly priced; buses and shared shuttles can be cheaper but slower. The airport is usually well-equipped with lounges and services, making it convenient for international connections, though security checks and peak-time queues can add time to transfers.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) functions as the city’s principal international hub, handling most long-haul and intercontinental services for global carriers and major Chinese airlines; it’s typically perceived as mid-to-upper in price. Pudong lies about 30–40 km east of downtown; the Maglev or metro Line 2 take roughly 30–45 minutes (Maglev faster, metro cheaper), taxis or rideshares usually cost more. Hongqiao (SHA) is closer—around 10–15 km west of the center—and often caters to domestic and short-haul regional flights with many budget and full-service Chinese carriers, generally offering lower fares. Hongqiao is linked by metro Lines 2/10 and high-speed rail with 20–30 minute transfers and modest fares, while road transfers are shorter but can be slower in peak traffic. Pros: Pudong excels for international connectivity and amenities; Hongqiao is more convenient for downtown access and quick domestic connections. Cons: Pudong can mean longer transfers and higher transfer costs; Hongqiao has fewer long-haul options. Both airports typically provide plentiful transport choices and services, though travel times and prices can vary with traffic and time of day.
