Located about 15–20 km southeast of the city center, transfer options usually include taxis (roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic), airport shuttles and express buses with fares that can be very economical, plus occasional private transfers. Travel time can vary considerably in peak hours, so budget extra time. The airport generally offers a wide range of services and connections, making it convenient for onward international travel, though peak crowds and occasional delays can affect comfort and speed of processing.

The airport sits about 12–14 km southeast of the city center, and travel by taxi usually takes 20–35 minutes with fares commonly in the low-to-mid range for Russia; shared minibuses (marshrutka) and occasional airport shuttles can be cheaper but slower.
