Wattay International Airport (VTE) in Vientiane serves as Laos’ primary international gateway and a modest regional hub, typically handling a mix of full-service carriers and budget airlines connecting to Southeast Asia and China. Flights to and from VTE can be relatively affordable compared with larger hubs, though prices vary with season and carrier. The airport sits about 3–5 km north of the city center; taxis and tuk-tuks usually take 10–20 minutes depending on traffic, with fares generally low by international standards. Some hotels offer shuttle arrangements. Pros: compact terminal, short transfer times and straightforward immigration; cons: limited shopping and lounge options, and fewer long-haul connections than major regional hubs.
Beijing is served primarily by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and the newer Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with both functioning as major international hubs for China. Capital (PEK) has traditionally been the main gateway for full-service carriers such as Air China and many international airlines, while Daxing (PKX) often handles a mix of long-haul and growing international services plus some low-cost and domestic connections. Each airport lies roughly 30–50 km from the city center: Capital to central Chaoyang is typically 25–30 km, Daxing about 45–50 km. Options include express trains (20–35 minutes from Capital’s Airport Express to the subway with fares usually modest), high-speed intercity trains or the Daxing Express Line (around 20–30 minutes to the nearest metro interchange), airport shuttle buses and taxis (journeys commonly 40–90 minutes depending on traffic; fares can range from inexpensive shuttle fares to higher taxi or ride-hail charges). Pros: modern facilities, extensive route networks and frequent services; cons: both airports can be busy, transfers may require significant time and planning, and Daxing’s greater distance can add travel time and cost.
