Which Of A City's Airports Should I Choose?

When booking tickets for domestic or international travel

, even travelling to a single city brings up a number of options regarding which airport you should travel to. But which one is best?

Book some flights from Richmond to Seattle and you may find that you know exactly which airport you want to leave from, but you don't know which airport exactly it is that you should fly too. With new airports springing up every year, some very far from a city center, it's hard to know which airport is best to fly to. Sure, when booking flights from New York to Omaha you might be tempted to book the cheapest tickets that money can buy, but sometimes it's a complete waste to do that when you then have to spend so much on getting from the inaccessible airport far from the city all the way to the city itself.

So research on the internet which of the city's airports are closest to the city center, rather than which airport offers the cheapest flight. There's nothing worse than taking flights from Los Angeles to Zurichonly to find that you're more than an hour away from the Swiss cities center, and are in fact in a different state altogether. This often happens in Europe where airport attempt to cash in on the name value of a major city in a country and name their airport with the derivative of that.

However, these airports often have such innovative and well-thought out public transport systems that it's not so expensive or time consuming to get to and from a city's second and more distant airport. In fact, if it's cheaper, then there are rarely occasions where it's worth going to the closer airport. So choosing the cheaper one is my general rule in this situation.
