Almaty International Airport (ALA) is Kazakhstan’s main international gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub for national carrier Air Astana alongside a mix of regional and international airlines. It can be pricier than smaller domestic airports but often offers more route options and amenities. The airport lies about 15–20 km southeast of the city center; travel time by taxi is usually 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with fares typically ranging from modest fixed-service rates to higher metered amounts, while public buses and airport shuttles can take around 40–60 minutes for a lower fare. Pros include a wide choice of international connections and decent passenger facilities; cons can be variable queue times and occasional congestion during peak periods.
Riyadh is served primarily by King Khalid International Airport (RUH), the city’s major international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers, while budget or regional flights may operate on select routes. RUH sits roughly 35–45 km north of downtown Riyadh, with travel times typically 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options include taxis and app-based ride services (fares usually moderate), private shuttles, and occasional hotel transfers; a planned metro connection may alter transfer times in future. The airport offers wide amenities and lounges, which can make connections comfortable, but distances between terminals and peak-hour road congestion can add time and complexity to transfers.
