Baku’s Heydar Aliyev International Airport is the country’s main international gateway and a regional hub, handling most long-haul and connecting flights. It typically hosts national carrier flights alongside a mix of full-service and some budget airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on carrier and season. The airport sits about 20–25 km southeast of the city center; drive times are usually 25–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares commonly falling into an affordable local range. There are also airport shuttle buses and private transfers, which can take a bit longer but cost less. Pros: modern facilities and convenient connections; cons: occasional traffic delays into central Baku and variable public transport frequency.
Johannesburg is served mainly by O.R. Tambo International (JNB) as the city’s international hub and Lanseria (HLA) as a smaller, often lower-cost alternative. O.R. Tambo typically handles full-service carriers and most long-haul flights, while Lanseria can be popular with regional and budget operators; fares at Lanseria are often perceived as more budget-friendly, though this varies by route. JNB sits about 22 km east of the city centre and is reachable by Gautrain+shuttle or taxi in roughly 30–45 minutes; fares for Gautrain plus a shuttle can range from modest to mid-level, while meter taxis or ride-shares tend to cost more. Lanseria is located northwest around 40–45 km from central Johannesburg, normally a 40–60 minute drive depending on traffic; private shuttles and taxis are common options with variable pricing. Pros: O.R. Tambo offers extensive international connections, lounges and transport links; Lanseria can be quicker and less crowded for regional hops. Cons: O.R. Tambo can be busy and busy-period transfers may take longer, while Lanseria has fewer facilities and less frequent public transport.
