Cherepovets Airport

Opened in the 1960s, Cherepovets Airport is a compact regional airport serving Cherepovets and the industrial Vologda Oblast, featuring a single passenger terminal and modest traffic volumes that make transfers quick and simple. Important to business travel in the region—especially for the nearby Severstal steel complex—the airport handles mainly domestic routes and narrow-body aircraft rather than acting as a major international hub. Located roughly 15–20 km from downtown, it’s reachable by regular shuttle buses, taxi and car with straightforward road links to neighboring cities. Ticket prices are generally more affordable than bigger Russian hubs, with regular service from national and regional carriers.
