Chelyabinsk Airport (Balandino, CEK) serves as the city’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of domestic and regional flights rather than large long-haul services. Carriers operating here are usually Russian domestic and low-cost regional airlines, so fares can often feel moderate compared with bigger hubs. The airport is about 18–20 km north of Chelyabinsk city centre; travel by taxi or ride-hailing takes roughly 25–35 minutes depending on traffic, while a limited public bus service can take around 45–60 minutes for a lower fare. Pros: compact terminals and straightforward procedures; cons: fewer direct international connections and limited ground-transport frequency late at night.
