Xi’an is served mainly by Xi’an Xianyang International Airport (XIY), the region’s primary international and domestic hub handling most long-haul, regional and low-cost carriers; a smaller general aviation field exists closer to the city but is rarely used for scheduled services. XIY sits about 40–45 km northwest of downtown Xi’an, with travel times to the city center typically ranging from 35–60 minutes by high-speed airport express train or 45–90 minutes by road depending on traffic. Ground connections include the dedicated high-speed airport link and regular long-haul and local buses, with taxi or ride-hailing fares generally higher but convenient for door-to-door travel. The airport is usually efficient for international transfers and offers a wide choice of carriers, though the distance to central Xi’an can mean longer surface transfers and occasional peak-hour congestion.
Tokyo is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Narita International (NRT), located about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo, typically functions as the city’s main international hub for long-haul and many full-service carriers; travel to the city center can take around 60–90 minutes by Narita Express or airport limo bus, with fares often in the moderate-to-higher range for convenience. Haneda (HND), much closer at roughly 15–20 km south, is usually the more convenient choice for domestic flights and an increasing number of international services operated by both legacy and low-cost airlines; journeys take about 15–30 minutes by monorail or train and are generally cheaper and faster. Pros: Haneda offers comfort and proximity, while Narita can be competitive on long-haul routes and sometimes on price. Cons: Narita’s distance can add transit time and cost, and both airports can be busy at peak times.
