Start with destination
The airport closest on a map is not always the easiest public-transport trip to your neighborhood.
Choose the airport that fits your actual trip.
Airport choice depends on where you are going, the flight you can book, bags, arrival time and ground transport. These comparisons use official airport and public-transport sources instead of pretending one airport is always best.

Watch airport changes
If a single itinerary uses two airports in one city, treat it as a separate landside journey and model a large buffer.
