Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (WUH) serves as the city’s main international and domestic gateway, typically functioning as a major hub for full-service carriers and many domestic airlines, with some low-cost operators also present. It’s located roughly 26–35 km north of central Wuhan, and ground connections usually include airport shuttle buses (about 40–60 minutes), taxis or ride-hailing (30–50 minutes depending on traffic) and the intercity metro line linking to the city center (around 35–45 minutes). Fares can range from modest shuttle fees to mid-range taxi fares.

Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) is the city's main international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some international low-cost operators. Located about 30–40 km east of downtown Shanghai, it typically takes 45–60 minutes by maglev/train or 45–70 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; public transit fares are usually modest while taxis can be noticeably more expensive.
