Urumqi Diwopu International Airport (URC) is the main international gateway for Xinjiang and typically functions as the region’s premium hub, handling long-haul, domestic and cargo services. Major carriers usually include China Eastern, Air China and China Southern alongside regional and low-cost operators on domestic routes, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid/high depending on season and routing. The airport sits roughly 16–20 km northwest of Urumqi city center; travel options commonly include taxis (about 25–40 minutes, fares typically moderate), airport shuttle buses and occasional municipal bus lines (longer but cheaper), while private transfers and rideshares may be available. Pros: comprehensive facilities and good connectivity for regional transfers. Cons: distance from downtown can add time and road congestion may affect travel windows.
Tokyo is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Narita International (NRT), about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo, is typically the long-haul international gateway used by many legacy carriers and some full-service foreign airlines; trains to Tokyo Station take roughly 60–90 minutes (Narita Express or Keisei Skyliner) with fares often in the mid-range for airport rail, while buses and taxis can be longer and pricier. Haneda (HND), much closer at about 14 km south of the city center, functions as a major domestic hub that increasingly handles international flights and can be perceived as more convenient and time-saving for most travelers. Haneda connects to central Tokyo in around 15–30 minutes by monorail or train and 20–40 minutes by taxi, with generally lower local transfer costs than NRT. Pros: Haneda’s proximity and frequent services make it comfortable and quick for business and short stays; Narita usually offers more long-haul flight options and sometimes lower fares on international carriers. Cons: Narita’s distance can add travel time and cost to the trip, while Haneda can be busier and slightly more expensive on some international routes.
