Heydar Aliyev International Airport (GYD) is Azerbaijan’s main international gateway and typically handles most long-haul and regional traffic, serving flag carrier Azerbaijan Airlines alongside a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers. Located about 20–25 km southeast of central Baku, the airport can be reached by taxi in roughly 25–40 minutes depending on traffic; shared shuttles and private transfers are common, with fares usually higher than public options. There is also limited public bus service that can take 40–60 minutes at a lower cost. The airport tends to offer modern facilities and a wider choice of routes, which can make it more convenient but sometimes pricier than smaller regional options; transfers and peak-time queues can be a downside for tight connections.

Beijing is served primarily by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with PEK historically operating as the main international hub and PKX positioned as a modern large-scale gateway to relieve capacity. Major full-service carriers, including Air China and several international airlines, typically dominate long-haul and transfer traffic, while low-cost and regional carriers can be more common on domestic and short-haul routes. PEK sits about 32 km northeast of the city center and PKX roughly 46 km to the south; both are reachable by airport express train or long-distance bus, with train journeys generally taking 20–40 minutes from central terminals and buses 40–90 minutes depending on traffic. Taxis and ride-hailing are available at both airports but fares and travel times can vary widely during peak hours. Pros: strong connectivity and frequent services; Cons: both airports can be busy and transfers between them may require significant surface travel time.
