Tehran is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International (IKA) is the primary international gateway and a hub for full-service carriers; it typically handles long-haul and many scheduled international flights and can be pricier on average than smaller airports. Mehrabad (THR) functions more as a domestic and regional airport, commonly used by budget and local carriers for internal connections. IKA sits roughly 45–60 km southwest of central Tehran with motorway and express bus options taking around 40–60 minutes depending on traffic; fares for buses and shared shuttles are usually modest. Mehrabad is much closer (about 10–15 km), reachable in 20–40 minutes by taxi or local bus at lower fares. Pros: IKA offers more international facilities and newer infrastructure; THR is convenient for quick domestic transfers. Cons: IKA’s distance from the city can add time and taxi cost, while THR can be crowded and sometimes limited in international services.
