Tokyo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT), about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo, is typically the international gateway for long-haul and many full-service carriers; travel to the city center can take 60–90 minutes by Narita Express or 60–120 minutes by airport limousine bus, with fares generally in the mid-range for rail or bus. Haneda (HND), much closer at roughly 15–20 km south, functions as a major international and domestic hub popular with both legacy and low-cost airlines; trains such as the Tokyo Monorail or Keikyu Line reach central Tokyo in around 13–30 minutes, often cheaper than Narita transfers. Narita can be more economical for budget international flights but usually involves longer transit times, while Haneda typically offers superior convenience and shorter commutes. Pros: Haneda’s proximity and frequent connections; Narita’s wide range of international services. Cons: Narita’s longer travel time to the city; Haneda can be busier during peak periods.

Beijing is served mainly by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with Nanyuan acting as a much smaller domestic field. Capital is a long-established international hub favored by legacy carriers and many full-service airlines, while Daxing—opened recently—handles a mix of international and domestic flights and can be competitive on price depending on carrier and route. Both airports sit 20–50 km from central Beijing; travel times are typically 30–60 minutes by express train or 45–90 minutes by taxi depending on traffic. Public transport options include dedicated airport express lines, regional rail, and buses with fares usually ranging from modest to moderate. Capital offers extensive amenities and easy transfer options, whereas Daxing is modern with streamlined design but can require longer ground transfers for some parts of the city; smaller Nanyuan is convenient for nearby districts but has limited facilities and fewer carrier choices.
